I love this website. For example, on that particular thread as one of the last posts

'Let me tell you, for one, i have seen what is in Chobham. Yes that's right, i've seen it and how it's made up.

It's made up of pillows and quilts. I hear you laugh, but it's made from the feathers of the Aylesbury duck.

i bet you didn't know that eh. '

Most armies march on their bellies. The British army marches on Piss taking, and God Bless 'em for it. :wink:

This debate, "the best tank" will be ever-ongoing, but one thing all (well, least most) will agree on is, " the best crew" has the best tank.

Well the best fed crew anyway. I always say the Leclerc was the only tank in the world designed round a wine rack. :wink:

BW is it still true that the French are issued a small bottle of wine with there rations?

[Bluewings]

Dunno , I left the Forces in 1987 , But I 'll find out for you .
In my time , it wasn 't wine but a small bottle ~15cl~ of French Cognac :D

Anyway, the Leclerc is a nice tank that doesnt get enough attention on Tanknet IMHO. They are probably right when they say its the only real new tank out there at the moment, and it deserves attention for that. Mind you the Japanese Type 90 looks a hell of an impressive machine as well. Things can get a bit Anglo-American Centric on Tanknet I think.

Kinda like the Beach Boy's song: ~ California Girls ~

Choice's, so many, so hard.. yea right!!

IMO: it's always gonna be the one that you land in bed with, keeps your turret long and straight, fires that load everytime, on-target, while keeping you ass warm, comfy, and supported.
