Partial truce has come into effect. Aleppo is still hot.

>A statement said it would last for 24 hours in Damascus and the Eastern Ghouta region outside the capital.

>The truce is due to last for 72 hours in the northern countryside of Latakia province.

>The Americans are hoping the process can be extended to Aleppo, which the Russians are reported to have refused to include in the latest truce.

Bank Tank Edition

> What's this thread about?
As usual this thread is for the discussion and pics of tracked and wheeled AFVs of all kinds from MBTs to supertanks to self propelled AA guns. Please keep it civil and cite sources for statistics.

During the Cold War, Switzerland’s “armed neutrality” produced tanks of its own. The Pz series of MBTs was initiated in 1951 after a long history of unsatisfactory usage of export tanks, dating back to the aftermath of the First World War with the delivery of the country’s first tank, the FT-17. Exports from France, Czechoslovakia and Britain, among others, resulted in a large pool of leftover parts, many of which would be recycled for ad hoc use, such as in the case of Czech anti-tank guns, fitted on a diverse array of tank chassis. However, it was in 1958 that the first prototype of the then Pz 58 was completed, sporting a Swiss 90 mm, followed by a second prototype, with a British 20 pounder. From 1960-61, a further ten test models were built, collectively under the nomenclature of Pz 61, this time armed with a 105 mm L7. From this point on, production was approved and 150 more would be built from 1964 and 1966 at the Federal Engineering Works, Thun. The design was identical to the prototypes, but with the notable addition of a 20 mm Oerlikon cannon to the turret’s left. From 1971-74, 170 improved models, dubbed the Pz 68, were built incorporating a vastly superior FCS and horizontal and vertical gun stabilisation, although sans 20 mm. The engine and transmission also underwent tweaks. The tank itself was cast, the turret not featuring a bustle, but slightly larger than the Pz 61. In 1988, a major renovation project, the Pz 68/88 was announced and carried out through the ‘90s. After the Pz 87, however, all models were retired in 2003.

OP: As always, feedback, suggestions wanted and appreciated.
Regarding the fate of the Pz 68, there was a proposal to comprehensively modernise the tank in what was called the Pz 68-2000 package, combining a 120 mm and modern sights/electronics with sorely needed fixes to the antiquated NBC sysetms, but this fell through when the Leopard 2 was offered instead, which proved to be a more capable alternative, compared to what was increasingly seen as an anachronistic part of the decidedly well-serviced Swiss military. The Pz 68 in its heyday had three distinct models, alongside the later 68/88, the Mk 1, 2 and 3. 50 Mk 2s were built in 1977, and the Mk 3 folded in its design all the improvements that the previous marks had fielded, coupled with a marginally larger turret. Interestingly, during the 1980s, there were trials with the chassis of the Pz 68 being used as a basis for anti-aircraft systems such as the contemporary Gepard. In addition, another prototype, called the Panzer-Kanone 68 was built fitting a 155 mm gun on the 68 chassis, the gun purportedly reaching a not unimpressive range of 30 km. Another thing – early on, the Swiss contemplated a machine gun position dedicated to the commander, but then abandoned this hastily, as it was concluded that the commander should direct, rather than fire an MG in combat.
The bottom line, as far as the Pz 68 is concerned, is that while it was a fine tank for its time, if not quite the heaviest, armour thickness being comparable to a T-55 around the time early models came into service in 1965, it grew obsolete very quickly, and it was no surprise to anyone that the German Leopard 2 became the staple of the Swiss military thereafter.
Also, I’m trying to change things up from Soviet prototypes all the time, what else would you guys recommend?

More tank news, as per the new format.
If you have more queries regarding a news story, just point it out, and I’ll further elaborate and provide links.

The monumentally large $11 billion USD Canadian arms deal to Saudi Arabia announced late last year, now faces a possible injunction, after a legal challenge was filed with the Federal Court of Canada by an MP. Canadian law prohibits the export of arms to nations in violation of human rights or in active conflict.
RUAG has developed an enhanced version of the M109 howitzer aimed at the export market. The Swiss Army has been the first beneficiary of the new Pz Hb 88/95 standard for its M109s, with major changes including 47 calibre chrome plated ordnance as opposed to the 39 calibre type, as well as significant changes to the exterior and interior of the turret.
Belarus’ Design Office Display has developed an improved version of its indigenous RWS known as the Adunok-W. The new pattern fits a Russian 12. 7mm NSVT and a 30 mm AG-17A as opposed to a single choice between the 7.62 mm PKT, 12.7 mm Kord or 30 mm AG-17A.
SAGEM has begun producing its Passeo modular advanced stabilising system (MASS) for an unidentified export customer. The component has been identified already on the CMI Defence Cockerill 3030/40 and 3105 turrets mounted on a GDLS (Europe) MOWAG Desert Piranha 5. According to SAGEM, Paseo MASS can detect targets out to a distance of 12,000 m, recognise them at a range of 7,300 m, and identify them at 4,200 m.
Finally, Nexter Systems has commenced the initial phase of extensive Leclerc upgrades affecting both MBTs and ARVs in the French Army. The contract concerns a $339.5 milion USD contract covering the upgrade of 200 Renovated Leclercs and 18 Renovated ARVs, to be carried out at Nexter’s Roanne facility, and continue through 2018 until 2028, with the possibility of further numbers of tanks being added.

And that’s all for now.

The range also has a bathroom and close parking so anyone that wants to camp out in their car is welcome to do so.

NuggetFest is and always will be free. I'll be bringing some bacon and eggs to make everyone breakfast on Saturday morning. We might do some other communal cooking too but remember to bring enough supplies for yourself and your friends for 3 days.

Got a few announcements to make.

Work on the /k/omic is progressing well, I finally determined which character setting I want to go with- the answer is, both. I'm going to let my ideas run free for a little while, make some 4koma style drafts, and let the artist decide which he wants to make official. I can make a draft in about 15 minutes and there's no obligation for the official artist, so it's functional. This isn't a published production after all, there's no reason I need to be autistic about it.

Speaking of which, if you're an artist who's willing to do some work for us, email me at [email protected] so I can send you some stuff and get in contact.

That being said, I'm still curious about what I want the uniforms to look like, but for now I'll just stick with school uniforms and the like.

The bad news is I'm deciding how I want to tackle my college issues, and I won't be able to write over the weekend, which sucks.

I'm also dumping the hundreds of images I've saved from /ak/ threads onto imgur, the overwhelming majority of which aren't on danbooru because the danbooru mods are cucks. So check that out.

Maybe import bans aren't all that bad.

Consider this: nobody innovates like American companies. The rest of the world is doing jack shit to improve small arms technology.

So maybe protectionism isn't such a bad thing. Gives more support to domestic manufacturing. If the market gets flooded with chink shit a lot of companies will go out of business.

that is a nice m4, although a little too mall-ninja for my taste.

buckshot doesn't really start to spread out noticeably until ~25m, so at those close distances it's just the volume and mass of the rounds that make for effective incapacitation

Today I noticed my retaining plate on the back of my AR15 was loose, so I sat down and went to tighten it.
While doing so a little fucking spring came flying out of the gun and landed somewhere in my bedroom (It has been two hours on my hands and knees with a flashlight and I can't find it)
After consulting my manual this is called a "Takedown Pin Detent Spring" or something- My question is: Is it important? Will the gun fail without it? Will I be okay just ordering a new one or should I find this one right now?

Just buy a new one for like $6 if you can't find it. Your gun is still usable, the rear take-down pin will just want to fall out.
