Re: Quiz: Can You Name This Tank Or AFV?

Here's an APC from the Cold War era that's a bit unusual.

Re: Quiz: Can You Name This Tank Or AFV?

This is an unusual one. It's not Chinese, however. Hint. Its country of origin didn't choose to adopt it, but others did.

Thanks for the hint, Vickers Mk 3 it is then. Where did you get this pic? I though that Vickers Mk 3 was only operational with Kuwait (Mk 1), Kenya, Nigeria, and Indian knock off, Vijayanta (although, Mk 1)

Regards,

Sergey

You are close enough for a correct call. Actually, the picture shows a Vickers Mark 1 MBT of the Indian army. I've seen this shot in a number of books, one of them being "The Illustrated Directory of Tanks of the World" by David Miller (MBI Publishing Co., 2000 ), see page 396.

This is another Cold War Era entry that is quite streamlined.

Right again. The TAM was designed by a West German firm and was based on the chassis of the Marder APC.

You're close enough. This is the Pbv 302 APC, mounting a 20mm cannon and dates back to the early 1960s. It's a lot like our own M113.
