This shouldn't really be my turn to set the quiz. But it's either that or no quiz, so...

Three ships, three vehicles and three aircraft. Varying degrees of difficulty and/or obscurity.

Wow, tough one.

I'll guess #1 is a British Chieftan?

#4 is a Marder APC (German).

#4 is indeed a Marder.

but #1 isn't a Chieftain I'm afraid.

1: stridsvagn 105, a centurion i think.

Damn, I think Miko is right, Centurion...

I was close though. :lol:

Ok, so far we have:

1: Stridsvagn 105/Centurion. I wanted the model number, so animepornstar gets the points. Sorry Mikoyan, but it's too far from a "normal" Centurion for that to be enough.

2. Proj 1164/Slava - This one is Mikoyan's

3. IAR-80 - this one too, Mikoyan

4. Marder - joespanial

5. Leander - spot on by Kennelly

6. MiG-27 - G-Man scores

7. ????????????????

8. ????????????????

9. is indeed TSR.2 - another one for Mikoyan

So the points are:
Mikoyan : 3 points
animepornstar, joespaniel, Kennelly, G-Man : 1 point

so unless one of the four gets the last two, Mikoyan will win...

Wild guess on #7.... an M-110?

The Art of War

.7 Scorpion Light Recon Vehicle?

MadScot

Sorry, neither of those two (Scorpion or M-110) is correct for #7.

Since I seem to have stumped people with 7 and 8, I reckon I should give just a little while longer then spill the beans. Which means Mikoyan ought to start thinking about what he might use for a quiz, since it'll likely be his turn next.

#7, an AMX 10 P?

MadScot

OK, here they are:

#7 is a Warrior IFV (British)

#8 is the Japanese cruiser Mogami

Thanks for all who had a go.

As the clear winner, the next quiz is Mikoyan's.
