Canadian MEXAS Leopard C2 arrives in Afghanistan
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.

Don,

The video shows both HESH and White Phosphorus rounds being loaded.

I Thought that the light green banded rounds were 'Willie Pete'. Its been a long time since I've seen the 105mm ammo....

Amazing that the Canadians still use the brass casings.

I've always wanted a 105mm brass casing... Guess I'll have to live with the two aluminum casings I have. Besides, I fired both, and its all about the memories.

Excellent video!!

Don
