Originally uploaded on 13 mei 2017. The ELC was a prototype light tank project launched by the French in 1955. The purpose of the ELC (Engin Léger de Combat) project was to develop a lightweight armoured but heavily armed fighting vehicle capable of being transported by airlift for rapid deployment. Many turrets models were tested on the first chassis design. One of these turrets had twin 30mm HS825 cannons mounted on a pedestal-type turret and two machine guns. In 1957, a new chassis was designed and this chassis was completed in 1961. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on 4 nov. 2017. The 7.5 cm Pak 40 was developed in 1939–1941 by Rheinmetall after reports of new Soviet tank designs. The 5 cm Pak 38 was still in testing at this point, but it appeared it would not be powerful enough to deal with these newer designs. However, while the Pak 38 made extensive use of light alloys to reduce overall gun weight. As a result, the Pak 40 used steel throughout its construction and was proportionally heavier than the 5 cm model. A modified version of the gun designed specifically for vehicle-mounting was the 7.5 cm KwK 40. The Pak 40 was the standard German anti-tank gun until the end of the war, 23,303 Pak 40s were produced and about 3,500 more were used to arm tank destroyers. The weapon was effective against almost every Allied tank until the end of the war, only struggling to penetrate heavier vehicles like the Russian IS tanks, the American Sherman Jumbo and M26 Pershing, and later variants of the British Churchill tank. But overall performance was pretty good. It was also see action in the Vietnam war and would be used by Norway postwar. In September 1944 during the Allied operation of Market Garden, this gun was captured from the enemy. and during the liberation parties on the 13 of May 1945 this gun was placed on this square by the inhabitants, it was restored in 2005 for the movie Zwartboek ( Black Book) but never used in the movie and returned as a monument. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on 1 apr. 2018. The Light Tank M24 was an American light tank, that first saw use near the end of WWII. The M24 was giving the service name Chaffee by the British after the United States Army General Adna R. Chaffee,Jr. The M24 was intended to replace the M5 Stuart, but the US Army had problems reaching the front-line combat units. By the end of the war, many armored divisions were still mainly equipped with the M3/M5 Stuart. After the war it served in postwar conflicts including the Korean war and the war in Algeria and the Fist Indochina War. Many countries used the M24 after the war and it's still in service in some countries today. This M24 Chaffee has no recorded history, but was probably a postwar Chaffee that served with the French army and was placed here as a gatekeeper to the Quartier Estienne. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

It was developed in 1933 as an infantry support light tank and would have had a great 37 mm gun and wel it was well-armoured for it's time. By 1940 and during the Battle of France it pretty much was lacking in the anti-tank roll and was to slow. The R35 would be produced from 1936,until 1940 and would be used by the Germans after 1940. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on 18 feb. 2017. The Panzerkampfwagen III, Sd.Kfz. 141. Was a German medium tank developed in the 1930s, and was used extensively in WWII. It was developed to fight other AFV and support the Panzer IV. But it became obsolete in the role, because of the T-34 and more powerful anti-tank guns. The Panzer IV had more potential and was there for redesigned to mount the 7.5 cm Kwk 40 gun. The Panzer III was later mounted with the 7.5 cm Kwk 37 L/24, and was better suited for infantry support. But the Panzer III, still became obsolete in his role and production ended in 1943, when only 5.774 were produced. This Panzer III can be viewed at the Saumur Tank Museum in Saumur, France. It was made at the Daimler-Benz AG, Marienfelde, Berlin, Germany. It has no combat history. You would think this Ausf.F. is an Ausf.H. but it was upgraded to an Ausf.H standard, sometime during the war. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on 25 apr. 2018. Production of the M4A2 tank began in June 1942 it would have had a welded hull and one piece cast nose, with a 75mm cannon. And was manufactured by Fisher Tank Arsenal It would have had a GM 6046 twin diesel engine. This version was produced with all the improvements the other types got, like the large hatch hull. M4A2 was mostly supplied to other Allied countries under Lend-Lease. The M4A2 would see limited combat in the US Army and the French and British, would use them the most and then the Russians and USMC in the Pacific. The M4A2 would perform fairly well and would see service after the war and would see many upgrades Like the HVSS E8 tracks and, the 76mm M1 gun. This Sherman with serial number 13859, was built by Pullman Standard. It has no combat history and It was saved from the Bourges target range in France and was restored and placed at the Place du General Pershing. Because the major of the town seems to be really interested in WWII history and wanted a Sherman tank memorial in his town. You can also find a German WW1 Feldhaubitze next to this Sherman. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on 29 jul. 2017. The Sd.Kfz. 124 Wespe Feldhaubitze 18/2 auf Fahrgestell Panzerkampfwagen II was a German self-propelled gun used during WWII. It was developed because it became clear that the Panzer II, was an obsolete design and unsuitable as a main battle tank. The chassis, however, proved serviceable for providing mobility to the 10.5 cm field howitzer. The Wespe went into production on February 1943 until June 1944,it would see its first combat in 1943 on the Eastern Front. It proved very successful, and Hitler ordered all Panzer II chassis production be dedicated to the Wespe alone, at the expense of other projects, including the Marder II self-propelled anti-tank gun. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on 14 apr. 2018. The 7.7 cm Feldkanone96 n.A. combined the barrel of the earlier 7.7 cm FK 96 with a recoil system, a new breech and a new carriage. The FK 96 n.A. was shorter-ranged, but lighter than the French canon de 75 modele 1897 or the British Ordnance QF 18 Pounder gun. The gun proved to have great mobility, which served the German army well during the early stages of WWI. But when the front became static, the greater rate of fire of the French and Britsh guns put the German army at a disadvantage. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Production of the M4A1 tank began in February 1942 after the British placed an order, it would have had a cast nose, turret and a one-piece cast hull, with a 75mm cannon. And was manufactured by Lima Locomotive Works. These tanks were designed on British specs and was fitted with the Continental R-975 air-cooled radial engine. The M4A1 would be replaced on December 1943, by the M4A1(76) W, which received a more recent 76 mm M1 main gun, A new turret with a new commander cupola featuring 6 prismatic vision blocks and a new modernized Continental R975-C1 engine. Additional armor plate was often welded in front of the driver and co/driver’s position at the front of the tank and at the side to give them greater protection. Later version would be identical to the M4A1(76)W, but had the E8 Horizontal Volute Suspension System. The Horizontal Volute Suspension System was developed to reduce Ground Pressure and keep up with the Shermans additional weight. The HVSS system had a much wider 23 inch track, but still remained a bolt on module. It could replace the VVSS suspension on any version of the Sherman or anything based on its hull. It was very well received and used on many late production Sherman models and a few of the variants. It solved the flotation problem with no drawbacks. The M4A1(76)W Sherman HVSS was a pretty successful vehicle and had an efficient gun. After the war, it would be used by countries like The Netherlands and France. This M4A1(76)W Sherman HVSS was used by Dutch army and was sent to the Oldenbroek artillery shooting camp, where the tank was used for decades as a shooting target, after the tanks of this type were phased out at the end of the 1950s. The tanks would be salvaged in 2015 and was transported to the Museum in Zeeland. It was restored and in December 20, 2016, the restored tank was placed in the Liberation Park Zeeland. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

The 45 mm anti-tank gun model 1937 was a light quick-firing anti-tank gun used in the early stage of WW2. It was created by Soviet artillery designer M.N. Loginov in 1936. The 53-K was essentially an improved version 19-K anti-tank gun mounted on a 37 mm 1-K anti-tank gun chassis, which was a licensed copy of the 3.7 cm Pak 36. It was developed to be using more modern ammunition and would have had an improved semi-automatic breech, sight, firing button and suspension. Production of the gun would start in 1938 until 1943, with a total of 37,354 units built. For it's time the 53-K had great anti-armor capabilities it allowed crews to successfully combat any early tank. Early models of the Panzer III and Panzer IV could also be knocked out at close range, but because of the limited crew protection the model 1937 would be replaced by the longer-barreled M-42 in 1942. In addition to serving in the Red Army, 53-K guns were also supplied to Republican Spain and were used by the International Brigades in the British Anti-tank Battery of the XV Brigade. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

The LVT (officially designated as Landing Vehicle Tracked) is an amphibious warfare vehicle and amphibious landing craft, introduced by the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps. the LVT was designed by Developed by Donald Roebling in 1935 as a civilian rescue vehicle called the Alligator. Roebling was asked by the military to design a more seaworthy model for military use which would be a cargo carrier for ship to shore operations, they evolved into assault troop and fire support vehicles. Production would start on July 1941 and the first LVT-1 would be a easily produced design. The production would lead to the LVT-2.3.4, Buffalo and other developments. The United States Army, Canadian Army and British Army used several LVT models during World War II,. The LVT would see action in the Pacific and Europe. It would mostly see action in the Pacific and in Europe, LVTs were mainly used for landings and river crossing operations as well as assaults in swampy zones. By the end of 1943, 200 LVT-1s had been delivered to the British Army for training in preparation for future operations in Europe. The U.S., British, and Canadian armies used the Buffalo in the 1944 Battle of the Scheldt. The would also see action in the Korean War and would be used by some countries after the war. The LVT-4 in the Bevrijdingsmuseum Zeeland, in the Netherlands, has no historical information but it's one of the two in the collection of the museum and the only one on display. This LVT with the nickname Falconer was restored in 2019 and replaced the second LVT nicknamed the Spider inside the new museum building in 2020. Because the LVT nicknamed Spider is in running condition the Falconer was restored for static display with it's engine outside. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally recorded on Jan 21 2016. This Panther Ausf.G. belonged to the 2nd SS. Panzer Division. During the battle several Panther tanks ran into a minefield and were abandoned. This tank is displayed with turret number 407, which is wrong and it would probably had turret number 214, other sources say It was abandoned in a field probably because it ran out of fuel on 26 December 1944.It was salvaged after the battle and placed closer to this spot and in the 60's it was repainted and placed at the Grandmenil crossroads. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

The Renault FT, (later called the FT17 in WWII) was a French light tank that was among the most revolutionary and influential tank designs in history. The FT was the first production tank to have its armament within a fully rotating turret. The FT was developed in started in 1915, Renault would actually decline to develop the FT and Schneider company, would start on the development of the Schneider CA, which became the first French operational tank. But in 1916 Renault started on the design of the FT, Louis Renault himself conceived the new tank's overall design and set its basic specifications. The prototype did have some problems and only 84 were produced in 1917, some problems would never be solved and the FT would be plagued by radiator fan belt problems throughout the war. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Renault R35 at Musée Mémorial Bataille de Normandie, Bayeux. Video Here: https://youtu.be/1KmYnvP1YLw This Museum is situated in the heart of one of the strategic sites of the Battle of Normandy in the city of Bayeux. The Town of Bayeux was the first town to be liberated in mainland France on 7 June 1944. The museum is closely located to the memorial garden and the British war cemetery. The museum presents the military operations which took place during 7 June to 29 August 1944 in the Battle of Normandy. All with display cases focusing on the Allied and German soldiers and their equipment and vehicles, the museums provides a lot of information and almost every item is labeled and tells a story. Some interesting vehicles on display are the D7 Dozer and FlakPanzer 38(t) and a Wespe. The museum is a mix of modern and classic displays. And I would highly recommend going to this museum, it's conveniently located with free parking and the British war cemetery and memorial is a walking distance away ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

The Renault FT, (later called the FT17 in WWII) was a French light tank that was among the most revolutionary and influential tank designs in history. The FT was the first production tank to have its armament within a fully rotating turret. The FT was developed in started in 1915, Renault would actually decline to develop the FT and Schneider company, would start on the development of the Schneider CA, which became the first French operational tank. But in 1916 Renault started on the design of the FT, Louis Renault himself conceived the new tank's overall design and set its basic specifications. The prototype did have some problems and only 84 were produced in 1917, some problems would never be solved and the FT would be plagued by radiator fan belt problems throughout the war. Because the Renault FT had a great base for several rolls and being the first real modern tank numerous variants were produced on top of the chassis. One of them was the Char Renault TSF (télégraphie sans fil – telegraph without a wire), a radio command tank. The TSF was developed in 1916/17 after the need of an observation vehicle which could provide contact between units and their headquarters became clear. The crew was increased from two to three men, a driver, radio operator and commander and the turret was replaced by a fixed armoured superstructure, equipped with a cupola on top, an observation window in front a periscope. During 1917 the number of required radio tanks was originally 200 but this was later increased in early 1918. This Renault FT TSF was restored to running condition by the Weald Foundation. It was restored from several FT parts and the superstructure, was collected from a private collector in France, which probably got it from the Maginot Line were many of these superstructures were used. Being that this TSF was built up from several parts, makes this vehicle not an original build tsf. That's nothing weird because this is an extremely rare vehicle, with only 6 real hulls left in the world. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

The 25pdr SP, tracked, Sexton was a Canadian-designed self-propelled artillery vehicle. Development of the Sexton started after the British General Staff requirement a vehicle with mobility and characteristics of the M7 Priest but with the QF 25 pounder gun-howitzer. the Priest used the American 105 mm howitzer which was not in use in other British units. Having to supply different ammunition for just a few units complicated supply for the British Army. The Americans started working on a T51 prototype 25 pounder Howitzer Motor Carriage, but this vehicle suffered delays, so Britain turned to Canada. The Canadians were asked to build a vehicle similar to the M7 on the Ram tank chassis. A prototype was completed on 23 June 1942, which would follow trials in Canada and in the United Kingdom in early 1943. the vehicle was found to be highly satisfactory and was given the designation "Sexton" and 300 orders of the Sextons would follow in the summer of 1943. The British Sextons were to be built on Grizzly tank hulls instead of Ram tank hulls. The Ram-based Sexton was designated as the Sexton Mark I and the Grizzly-based Sexton was designated the Sexton Mark II. British orders for the Sexton II eventually totaled 2,026 vehicles. The Sexton would first see combat in Italy and later in the Battle of Normandy and the invasion of France During the D-day landings, a number of Sextons were ordered to fire from their landing craft as they approached the beaches although the fire did not prove to be very accurate, because of the unstable platform. But it proved to be a successful design that remained in British service until 1956. This Sexton has no historical information it was probably sold to Portugal and ended up with many vehicles at Pounds of Portsmouth scrapyard in the UK in the 1980. It was sold and restored in the 90s and with the effort from Dr Matthew KILN placed as a monument at Ver-Sur-Mer in memory of his father. Major Robert KILN, and the British troops who landed on this beach. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

Originally uploaded on Feb 25, 2017 The M10 tank destroyer was an American tank destroyer during WW2, it was officially called the 3-inch Gun Motor Carriage M10 and never Wolverine during the war. It was armed with the 3-inch M7 gun on a modified Sherman tank chassis. The M10 proved to be an excellent tank destroyer, but the open-topped turret left the crew vulnerable and a lot of crew were lost because of artillery fire, on the other hand the open-topped turret gave excellent visibility which was valuable to a tank destroyer and it also improved reload speed. The M10 was only produced from 1942 until 1943 and approximately 6,406 were made. 90 mm Gun Motor Carriage M36 began to arrive in Europe, and mostly replaced the M10 by the end of the war. The plans to retain any towed battalions at all were canceled after their generally poor performance and high losses in 1944, especially during the Battle of the Bulge. The M10 would also see action in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. The M10 at the Cavalry Memorial in Saumur has no historical information, but was probably used by the French after the war and maybe by the Free French Forces. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?

The Infantry Mk VII Churchill was a British heavy infantry tank was the heaviest Allied tanks of WWII known for its heavy armour, large longitudinal chassis with all-around tracks with multiple bogies and its use as the basis of many specialist vehicles, like the AVRE and the Crocodile. Development of the Churchill tank started as the A20 heavy tank just before the outbreak of wwii, with the idea of attacking a fixed defensive line, crossing wide trenches, possibly shell-cratered ground similar to wwi trench warfare. Because the war in France was lost the development of the vehicle changed and with a German invasion of Britain being imminent and the need of the A22 to enter production within a year was imminent. By July 1940, the design was complete and by December of that year the first prototypes were completed. In June 1941, the first Churchill tanks began rolling off the production line. Because of its hasty development, the Churchill was plagued with mechanical faults. Most apparent was that the Churchill's engine was under-powered and unreliable. the 2 pounder was also inadequate and the production of a turret to carry the QF 6 pounder gun began in 1941. The Churchill was used for the first time in the Dieppe Raid in August 1942 and did not preform great. Production would almost cease in favor of the Cromwell tank, but the Mk III preformed great in the Second Battle of El Alamein in October 1942. The improved Mk VII, had even more armour and the British 75 mm gun, it would be used in the Battle of Normandy. In Normandy it could cross terrain obstacles that most other tanks could not where the tank's ability to surmount obstacles was found to be of value was the capture of Hill 309. The Churchill also was a versatile tank and was used in numerous specialist roles during D-Day and the remainder of the war. Production would stop in 1945 after 5,640 were produced. They would see action in the Korean War and remained in service in the British Army until 1952. The Churchill tank at the Memorial of Operation Astonia, in the small town of Fontaine-la-Mallet in France has no historical information it was placed here to honor the Allied attack on the German-held Channel port of Le Havre in France. Fought from 10 to 12 September 1944, the Allied objective was to secure the harbour facilities intact, to deliver supplies to the Allied armies in Continental Europe. The Allies would refuse civilians to be evacuated and during the bombardment of the city 2,000 civilians were killed. the port was badly damaged and the damaged to the infrastructure was severe and it would take a month to re-open the port. ■ So want to help keep me and the channel going?
