MBT found.


Head in the clouds.

Recommended Posts

Hi Folks

I don't normally play in this playground but I thought it may be of interest for you AFV fans. AS I was travelling along the A17 towards Holbeach in Lincolnshire,where a Hawker HUnter , F402 (I think) and an artillery gun are displayed there is now an MBT, but not sure what it was, it seemed fairly modern, but as I was licking along in traffic I could glean no more.Thought it may be good if you want some walkaround photos.

Hope this helps

Gary.

If so, it's a fake: Chieftain running gear and a mocked-up M1 hull and turret. Memory suggests it was a movie prop, but what movie eludes me.

Was that 'courage under fire'?

Hi ,

I had a look at the photos, it's a Chieftain with Stilbrew armour , also there is a FH70 155 mm Gun, FV432 Mk2/1,  a Humber "Pig" , Foden "DROPS" system , Foden Recovery Vehicle and a Leyland Hippo Artillery Limber.
