Cool Jeeps there! 8)
FlyingFrog Is that a Zhanshen jeep? the Jeep with soldiers looks like its armed with Hong Qian 7 surface to air missiles? Or is that HJ-8E ATGMs? The machine gun 12.7mm W-85? A lot of firepower on that Jeep - Something to have when you are going to the supermarket when itīs sell off! ![]() Cheers: Doc.S ![]() |

Oh DOC, I think after a while I could be a "dead froggie" because of the shocking surprise from you, you konw TOO MUCH about the Chinese stuff
![]() While, one jeep is the Beijing 2020 Type, it costs about 10,000 to 20,000 USD, but many people just buy retired military jeeps which cost sometimes only 500 USD if you have good relations with the army ![]() The concept jeep is called Yong3Shi4 (BraveSoldier) I think. I don't know ZhanShen, I don't know, I really do NOT know ![]() I am just a newbie really I promise ![]() ![]() Well, another Chinese home made military jeep, not really a jeep, but a speedy forward charging vehicle ![]() ![]() Chinese "Hummer" made by DongFeng(East Wind) Auto Comp ![]() ![]() |

![]() Well I can tell you FlyingFrog and all the others about the secrets of my "knowledge".... 8 years of looking around news articles, homepages, and the library after foreign armour and equipment. I problably donīt know anything of importance of my own armys equipment more then the basics. I find it not to interesting. Well there are some BMP-1s there and the PBV vehicle and then there is the German equipment. With 200 operativ tanks and a army that only cuts down all the time, isnīt to interesting to follow up. So I turn my eyes out in the great world. The designs and the fast built up and the third generation vehicles and tanks are so much more interesting. Some people in sweden like to be in their gardens poking around, some people just hang at the malls. And some people play videogames. But I... Well I just play SPMBT and talk with people around the world to calm my burning interest of foreign tanks. And then we have the TV where they sometimes shows a battlefield and I can pin point that burning or shooting vehicle with very little marginal. A war is so much more interesting when you know what they are showing. ![]() ![]() And I donīt realy know how I can get use of this "knowledge" of mine more then if I got an steddy job and a big table where I could put togheter some models of these tanks I work to hard to find something about. But my wife donīt complain. She is always looking after astronomy things around the planet and in the galaxy. ![]() ![]() Cheers: Doc.S ![]() |
