Help/Pics Needed - MVTF, Portola Valley, CA
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.

Neat photos.

www.toadmanstankpictur..._ontos.jpg

This is the T165E2 Prototype Ontos. It looks as though it is still behind the disassembled T165E1 (Ontos), as it was several years ago.

Don

Neil,
Add the following for now:
Dragoon APC ind
CCVL Hull? outside
M4A2(76)HVSS ind
M4A3(105)HVSS ind
M32B3(HVSS) ind
M47 wreck
M578 wreck
M551 wreck
M53 155mm SP Gun outside
OT-810 ind
PSZH-IV HUN (cut away display) ind
SdKfz 8 DEU ind
There are a few other prototypes to add as well. I'll find my pics and add them.

Remove or change the following:
Fox GBR ind 90mm gun: It's just a plain 30mm Fox pic to follow

M5A1 Stuart USA ind SN 2440 (pic needed)
M5 High Speed Tractor USA ind Former agricultural tractor; SN 2440 9
The M5 HST listed above is actually the M5A1 2440. It's missing the upper hull and turret as it was a former ag. tractor.

STRV M42 SWE ind Only example in the US: it's actually the IKV73 www.toadmanstankpictur...m/strv.htm

I'll post additional photo links in a few minutes.

We can expect the regular updates of the already existing vehicles catalogues on www.toadmanstankpictures.com/ with new photos from last weekend tour in this week?

Thank you for making this photos.

Chris,
Many thanks for these!

Are these 2 different Fox vehicles, or the same one? Is there a normal Fox, and a Fox prototype?

Thanks again!

Neil

FYI,
This is an LVT(A)5 "modified" (rather than a standard WWII LVT(A)5), like the one now at Camp Pendleton
www.primeportal.net/ap...lio/lvta5/

The bow is very different from the standard straight now WWII LVT(A)5.

According to Hunnicutt, all LVT(A)5s were brought up to this standard post-war. There may also be a standard LVT(A)5 at Pendleton...

They are two different Fox vehicles. I don't know which one is the prototype.

It's not really a good time for me to ask questions about what vehicle is what as the MVTF is kinda busy right now. I'll be updating with new pics as time permits. I'll be up there alot during the next few weeks but I'm also trying to finish one of my books during the next 10 days so I maybe even slower at posting new pics than normal.

However, I have posted some new pics from this weekend on my new blog: toadmanstankpictures.blogspot.com/ There's some additional info posted there as well.

Thanks Chris.

FWIW, this one looks a bit different to me - including the slope of the front hull & hatch. There's also no bumper bar. Perhaps its the prototype?

Thanks!
