Work on a heavy cruiser tank began #OTD in 1943. The aim of this project was to drop all the traditions dragging down British tank design and build a tank from scratch. The resulting tank, the Centurion, came too late for WW2 but served for long after. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

#OTD in 1941 a contract for 435 Valentine III tanks was signed with Birmingham Railway Carriage and Wagon Company. Only 305 tanks from this contract were ever delivered, plus an additional 82 chassis as bridgelayers. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

Nothing to see here...just the President of the United States inviting the country he illegally declared war on to "take out" 2 major American cities. If that's not treason, what is? 🤬 Law enforcement won't hold him accountable, but we WILL! The beginning of the end is on November 3rd. #VOTE-BLUE 🌊

Samara oil pipeline hub is on fire in russia. Notice how it’s not an apartment building, kindergarten, school, or hospital like when russia attacks Ukraine, but the aggressor’s economy, attacked to limit the aggressor’s ability to wage war, not to murder kids in their beds.

#OTD in 1944 an M4A2(76)W tank was chosen to undergo trials at the Kubinka proving grounds. The proving grounds staff were busy with other projects, and only a surface level description was composed. Real trials only took place in December of 1944. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

The 13ème Régiment de Dragons armed with Char B1 bis tanks recaptured from German forces was formed #OTD in 1944. This was mostly a PR move, since the Char B1 bis was hopelessly obsolete by 1944 and the French had plenty of more useful tanks. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

Soviet trials of a captured 7.5 cm Pak 41 anti-tank gun began #OTD in 1942. This squeezebore gun had high penetration, but the ammunition used rare and expensive tungsten alloy and the barrel wore down quickly due to high pressure. #artillery #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

A mesh to protect against shaped charges was tested #OTD in 1944 by the 7th Armoured Brigade. This method offered good protection against the Panzerfaust 30, but not the larger and more powerful Panzerfaust 60. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

As the midterms approach, some of the president’s foes are working to ensure his aggressive approach to executive power doesn’t outlast him.

Saturday was a beautiful Fall day in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The sky was clear with only a pair of Sikorsky CH-148 Cyclones doing their thing. I was following them on ADS-B Exchange, and the second image is 148811 at the CUTLASSFURY21 departure from Halifax back on Sept 7 2021. #RoyalCanadianAirForce

I have no words🤬🤬 This is what russia is doing to Kyiv. The moment of a direct strike on the Northern Bridge. Cars were driving across it at the exact moment of impact. There may be casualties. This is a bridge full of civilians.

It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.
