ParmBrick posted a topic in The Military Section
Hi to all comrades, I am a lover like you of Lego military themes, I follow with passion the "The Brick Great War" from the beginning, even if I do not participate, over the years I have posted several of my creations in the old section, I am glad that there is now one entirely dedicated to this theme. I hope to be in the right place to post my military creations here. Having said that, today I present you my Lego Expeditionary Light Tank M8 "Buford" AGS, an improved version of the M8 AGS (Armoured Gun System) designed and manufactured by the Company BAE Systems. The mission for this vehicle is to have the ability to be airdropped behind an enemy lines and takes a position until the arrival of the main forces. It has level 3 armour package to increases the survivability against anti-tank guided missile and RPG, main armament of the BAE Systems Expeditionary Light Tank (ELT) is similar to the M8 AGS with one 105 mm gun. It also has the latest technological discoveries regarding communication, armaments and sensors.

The Oplot M MBT armament includes a 125mm gun, 7.62mm coaxial machine gun and 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun. The gun is stabilised in both elevation and traverse. Types of ammunition that can be fired by the gun include APFSDS (armour-piercing fin-stabilised discarding sabot), HEAT (high explosive anti-tank), HE-FRAG (high explosive fragmentation) rounds as well as laser beam-riding guided missiles. The missile can be fired while both the tank and target are moving. The missile has a tandem warhead to defeat targets fitted with explosive reactive armour as well as modern spaced armour, optimised against HEAT attack. The Oplot M is fitted with very advanced technologies as integrated vehicle protection system, which includes passive armour, explosive reactive armour array as well as a number of other tank protection devices that are optimised against modern anti-tank weapons and make the tank considerably less vulnerable to the full range of anti-tank weapons, as smoke grenades launchers on the sides of the tank. One visible feature is the new PNK-6 panoramic tank sight. The Oplot is powered by a model 6TD-2 diesel engine developing 1,200 hp. Other images on my flickr page!
