Spoiler :
NO, THIS IS NOT A THREAD ABOUT THE MILITARY CHANNEL'S JOKE OF A DOCUMENTARY!
Oh, and it's not about World in Conflict either, I just liked the picture because it includes many different types of military machines

CFC seems to be full of experts in military technology with great insight and vast knowledge of modern military machines. I would describe myself as an interested layman, so I'd like to see our resident experts to make a list of top 10 military machines in some of these categories (it's not required to participate in all 7 categories):
- main battle tanks
- infantry fighting vehicles
- fighter planes
- military transport aircrafts
- transport helicopters
- attack helicopters
- self-propelled artillery
- did I forget something?
- no ships or small arms, sorry!
Please adhere to the following rules:
1) Be objective!
2) Only the machines which are currently in service are eligible. No WW2 machines and no future machines, which are currently in development and have not entered active service yet or their parameters are not known.
3) Judge them by their performance and capabilities, not by their cost or the time they're in service. Don't be such idiots as the Military Channel and don't use irrelevant criteria like "fear factor" or "awesomeness".
4) Explain your top choice, why do you think it's the best, what were your criteria.
5) Provide the name of the country of origin in (brackets) after the name of the machine.
6) If you can't make a list of 10 machines, it's no problem. Just name at least five.
7) Pictures are welcome Use spoiler tags.
8) Discussing other people's lists is allowed, of course, but try to be civil and do not derail the whole thread into some flamefest. If you don't agree, fine, but don't spam the thread with thousands of posts.
