Full Militärmuseum
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.

what does the STC consist in?


The Swiss Tank Challenge STC was a competition for Leopard 2 Tank crews on simulators. Was also attended by foreign Leo users... After the competition, there was always on Saturday morning a big tank and vehicle parade. Modern and historical beauties...

I think that it is quite ugly lol, but at least it is original. Not sure that it would work very well on the battlefield, it would probably make the enemy laugh a bit.

P-O


If the battle takes place in the local Zoo it is probably helpfull Laughing

Or if they could find terrain that was half arctic half desert! Laughing

The display inside the new hangar has been rearranged, now WW II vehicles get better visibility and Warsaw Pact vehicles are all grouped together. This beast is on public display for the first time:

"Leopardine" wasn't on public display for a very long time, at one point I was afraid it was scrapped and stop listing it on the registry. I am glad it's now visible again.

This tank was a mascot for the regularly held Swiss Tank Competition STC in Thun: www.safc.ch/2007/stc/index.html

I first saw her back in 2004, see pic. Her name is "Leopardine"...
