ZBD-05 amphibious IFV

[fsn]

Don't particularly want a modern Chinese army - but LOOK AT THAT COLOUR SCHEME!

[Steve J]

I like the white tyres that give it a certain retro 50's bling .

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Very subtle

Wait. I think I recognise that vehicle. Isn't that the local Chinese restaurant's minibus advertising its signature dish, 06-18 *?


* Kung Po Chicken with fried rice

[fsn]

Have you noticed the only bit camouflaged is the gun?

I was hoping that 06-18 wasn't a warning for three years this June. 

[howayman]

The commander looks a bit stiff as well. Is it not just a cardboard cut out? origami gone aggressive.

[Hertsblue]

Chop suey delivery in the rougher parts of Shanghai?

[Roy]

Is it modern art?

[Fenton]

I reckon there American Gangsters. As only gangsters have white walled tyres wheels

[Roy]

Oh, I thought they were buttons (like the one's me mum used to sew onto my shirts back in the 80s).
They've got those four holes to sew through and look like plastic ...

[toxicpixie]

I think that's the PLA-N Marines colour scheme. They're expecting a lot of amphibious action, but I guess not expecting to make it past the water line...

[Hertsblue]

.... or if they're past the water-line there will be so many of them it won't matter who sees them.

Coming to an Asian country near you

[FierceKitty]

Uh oh.... Just as well the wife's got a Chinese face.

"We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender"

As long the French Navy lets us share their aircraft carrier, or the EU doesn't decide to alter the measurement system on our ammunition - if they can do it to bananas they could do it to an SA80! 

[sorry, couldn't resist  ]

[toxicpixie]

Would probably just make the SA-80 a better weapon

Well, we do have the Germans to thank for that already I s'pose!

[Ithoriel]

Churchill is reported to have said, as he sat down after making that speech, "And we'll fight them with the butt ends of broken beer bottles because that's bloody well all we've got!" Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose

[Roy]

Well, we do have the Germans to thank for that already I s'pose!

Just another reason why we should thank the Germans for making us a greater Britain

Queen Victorian, Kaiserin of Her Empire, would be proud
