Now the 2A4M Leopard is in the early phases of a life extension. 32 COMBAT ARMS LEADERSHIP by Chris Thatcher Few exercises test the combat skills of a young leader like Exercise Common Ground. Here’s a sample of what it’s like to spend 24 hours in the hot seat. -

THE HISTORY OF DANISH MILITARY AIRCRAFT VOLUME 1 DANISH MILITARY AIRCRAFT INTRODUCTION This is a complete overview of all aircraft which has served with the Danish military from the first feeble start in 1912 until 2017 Contents: Volume 1: Introduction and aircraft index page 1-4 Chapter 1 - Marinens Flyvevæsen (Navy) page 5-14 Chapter 2 - Hærens Flyvertropper (Army) page 15-30 Chapter 3 – 1940-45 events page 31-36 Chapter 4 – Military aircraft production page 37-46 Chapter 5 – Flyvevåbnet (RDAF) page 47-96 Volume 2: Photo album page 101-300 In this Volume 1 Each of the five overview chapters shows a chronological list of the aircraft used, then a picture of each type in operational paintscheme as well as some special colourschemes used operationally and finally a list of each aircraft’s operational career. The material has been compiled from a multitude of sources the first of which is my research in the Danish National and Military archives, the second is material from the archives of Flyvevåbnet with which I had a fruitful cooperation in the years 1966 to 1980 and the third are the now (fortunately) many books and magasines as well as the Internet which contains information about Danish military aircraft. The pictures in Volume 1 and Volume 2-the photo album- have mainly been selected from the viewpoint of typicality and rarety and whereever possible pictures of operational aircraft in colour has been chosen. Most of the b/w picures in some way originate from the FLV historical archives, some were originally discovered there by me, whereas others have surfaced later. -

Forsvarsudvalget 2020-21 FOU Alm.del - Bilag 4 Offentligt 14 October 2020 DOCUMENT C-M(2020)0026 (DK-OVERVIEW) NATO DEFENCE PLANNING CAPABILITY REVIEW 2019/2020 DENMARK OVERVIEW 1. The 2018-2023 Danish Defence Agreement remains extant, and assesses that Denmark faces more serious threats than in any other period following the fall of the Berlin Wall. In response to this, Denmark wishes to enhance its capacity for collective deterrence and defence within NATO; to enhance its ability to participate in international military operations and international stabilisation efforts for the purposes of, inter alia, fighting terrorism, capacity building, and handling of irregular migration flows; to strengthen its ability to contribute to the national security of Denmark, which includes increasing support to the Danish National Police; and to enhance its ability to protect Danish society from cyber threats and propaganda campaigns. Denmark considers NATO as the cornerstone of its security and defence policy. It recognises, inter alia, that it may become a staging area for reinforcements from other NATO Allies, and that, therefore, it must be able to receive, to host and to protect these reinforcements. Denmark wishes to improve its ability to operate with larger Allied army formations that can be deployed within NATO territory. Denmark also wishes to: enhance its cyber defences; allocate more resources to the Danish Defence Intelligence Service; and enhance its military presence and surveillance in the Arctic. 2. In January 2019, a supplementary defence agreement was agreed in the Danish Parliament, with broad cross-party support. This out-of-cycle political agreement provides additional funding of DKK 1.5 billion (US$ 238.03 million) in 2023. -

The Argentines have 54 of these vehicles on hand at present, though they do not currently have plans to manufacture more. In this role, the turret is removed, and in its place is a hump-backed rear with a set of large hatches, which are opened when the mortar is to be fired. What is normally the rear cargo area is taken up by the mortar, a turntable built into the floor of the vehicle, a special bipod and sight assembly designed for the vehicle, and ammunition racks. However, the VCTM carries only a limited amount of ammunition and charges internally (like almost all mortar carriers) and during most extended firing missions, the VCTM is fed by crewmembers manning ammunition stacks and charge containers outside the rear doors of the vehicle, who attach the charges to the rounds according to the range required and then pass them by hand to the assistant gunner (the crewmember who actually drops the round down the tube). -

Most of the design work was done by Germany’s Thyssen-Krupp AG, who had already developed the TAM light tank for Argentina. The idea of an APC based on the TAM chassis was the idea of the Argentine Army, and this was done to decrease the cost of the VCTP as well as the cost of maintenance by producing a vehicle that had a large percentage of parts that were the same as the TAM. It also meant that mechanics trained to work on the TAM could be quickly trained to also work on the VCTP, and a driver who could drive a TAM could drive a VCTP. The Argentine Army originally intended to replace all of their APCs and many of its scout vehicles with the VCTP, for a total of 350 VCTPs and VCPCs; however, only 210 (of all versions) were actually produced, due to budgetary problems. -
Best Vehicles That Never Were
Best Vehicles that Never Were BEST VEHICLES THAT NEVER WERE ...or never had a chance to be. This is a collection of vehicles and aircraft which were never more than prototypes, developmental vehicles, drawing-board designs that never made it off the drawing board, or are purely fictional. Some of the real proposals (as opposed to purely fictional ones) may yet make it into service one day, and others probably never will; others may make it into service, but not in quite their proposed forms. Only time will tell...

Seen in: Recent aircraft publications. Notes: Just about every aircraft enthusiast knows that, by law, the F-22 cannot be exported, due to is sensitive design and components. The Japanese stealth fighter design process, the F-X, has not been going well, and it has been running for about 10 years.
