I found this Bofors poster of the Indonesian Armed Forces' day commemoration of 1986. The poster suggests this is a SPAAG vehicle named Trinity, or at least some parts of it were. Quick search results in several examples of the Bofors Trinity turret being installed on the MOWAG Shark chassis...
In an incredible journey, 3 months after the onset of a new major military phase in the Ukrainian conflict that led the majority of NATO members to strengthen their defenses and augment their readiness with supplementary aircraft and patrols, a lone Piper Aztec, a civilian General Aviation...

Hi folks,
Maybe this should be under 'Missile Projects' (or indeed 'Army Projects') - if so, let me know and I'll shift it, but anyway here are some details and images relating to Britain's 'Parachute-and-Cable' ground-launched anti-aircraft system.

G'day gents
Can anyone please confirm the following -
'January, 11, 2011: The U.S Army has finally, after over a decade of development, and no orders, cancelled its SLAMRAAM anti aircraft missile system'
If so, this would have to emphasised the inability of the U.S military to be able to run...

Does anyone have additional information or concept art for the Air-Dominance Cruiser, CG(X)? It sounds like it will be a replacement of the Ticonderoga-class (CG-47) and use technology developed from the Zumwalt-class project.

The only information I could find was -
The ZSU-37-2 Yenisei is a later, unrelated design based on the chassis of the experimental SU-100P self-propelled gun. It was...
