sigpro posted a topic in The Great Brick War
GRID E4, a forest close to the border with Briolui. In order to test a new medium range AAA tank, a launch test has been scheduled. First, a two-man team has to choose a good launch site. 1 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr But, as they have plenty of time, why not light a fire to cook something? 2 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr They are in the middle of cooking a potato omelette -"tortilla de patata"- when the AAA tank arrives. 3 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr As you see, it shares the same hull as the already known SPH. This is an 8-missile SAM, using a large dish radar to detect incoming aircraft, launch an active homing missile and switch it off. This prevents the use of HARM weapons against it (Highspeed Anti Radiation Missiles), used to take down radar-guided SAM sites. 3 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr They are relaxed as they enjoy the picnic. Croissants, bananas, potato omelette...what else? Even a siesta? Why not? 4 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr But this is the Army! No time for siesta or relax!
