Fort Sill - can anyone report what is on display there?
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Fort Sill remains as of kind of an unknown for me... I have been able to catalogue the following with regard to the museum there, but I suspect this isnt complete. The museum website is especially poor... 2S1 USA out M7 Priest USA out M107 USA out M108 USA out M474 Pershing Launcher USA out T162 GMC USA out XM104 USA out XM2001 Crusader USA out Neil

It's been a LOONG time since I was down there, but the best thing I remember was the "cannon walk" a large outdoor collection of various artillery, mostly from the 20th century. US types up to the WW2 240mm howitzer and Cold War 280mm "Atomic Cannon", German, Italian, and Japanese cannons from WW2, Soviet designs from WW2, Korea and after, missles, etc. Not much armor per se, but a few SPs. There used to be a nice M37 SP 105mm at the gate. Back in the "pre 9/11" era you used to be able to see a number of interesting current weapons being used for support of the Field Artillery School.
