Post; Things You Don't See on CNN


I am posting some pictures of military and some of a new tire coming out soon by Michelin. The Police are going to have a hard time stopping someone with these things on his getaway car. See General Topics

Sheesh! How're you gonna tell some newbie to "change Winter air for Summer air" with those things?

As for the police stopping them, I foresee a "Ben Hur" chariot type device in the works.

Does anyone recognize the cannon in slide 10?

Yep, the XM2001 Crusader. The finest cannon ever made and nobody finished production. I've had a long running discussion about this here already. At least the NLOS is coming.

Now slide 12 was fun. AKA "How not to park a tank".

My favorite pict is of the missle going down the deck of an aircraft carrier and the crew member running.
