Challenger 1’s and CVRT’s of the 17th/21st Lancers in an aerial photograph with the tanks forming the shape of the ‘motto’ of the regiment, see image 2 for reference. Challenger 1’s form the outlines of the skull and crossbones, the eyes of the skull formed by the regimental 2iC (Second in Command) and one of the Squadron Leaders. The nose of the skull is formed by the CO’s tank with 2x CVRT Sultan command vehicles on the flanks. The teeth of the skull being formed by the REME LAD (light aid detachment) with Chieftain ARV’s (armoured recovery vehicles), finally with Recce Troop’s CVRT’s forming the majority of the motto banner. Unlike other armies, the British Army utilises regiment/squadron/troop nomenclature for tank/cavalry units, as do many other commonwealth nations, rather than the usual battalion/company/platoon terms used by other countries.

@RobCharltir5 @agbdrilling Ah, colours looked very BATUS-esque. I’m assuming the ‘nose’ of the skull here is the CO’s tac group given the tank is flanked by 2x Sultans, which C/S’s formed the skulls eyes?

Pictured: Alvis Streaker, based on the CVR(T), a lightweight tracked load carrier. Do we need something like this now, a modern day universal carrier?

@thinkdefence How else would the humble command troop justify its existence other than mass clusters of tents, camouflage nets and 432’s?

Original T-72 Ural in Service with DPR troops in October of 2015. Interestingly it's had the original TPN-1-49-23 night sight replaced with the newer TPN-3-49 seen on T-72A/B1.

LPR "T-64AV" and T-64BV's being withdrawn to Luhansk, October 2015. (Ive removed all the nonsense, so it's just tank footage and that glorious lawnmower engine sound).
