Just a flyby then back out to take care of the folks.
What is, what did you call it?, oh that's it, "bight sun" or "sunshine"? Wish people would speak English on here!
I followed Tiny's shining example and thought I would get a little yard work done today. Turned out the jungle fought back. 5 minutes chopping and 45 minutes cleaning equipment so I could do 5 more minutes of chopping.
I put up a heck of a battle, but a couple got through and were last seen heading south............better get ready Dave!

The T-34 and T-55 are easy ones.
None of those 3 would survive a RPG-7 hit though, not even the T-55. In WWII, those T-34s were better than our Shermans, but both were playthings for the German Tigers and Panthers.
Clear, bright stars, and 38 here..........I feel for you guys down there in the low country.

Evening gang.
Got a bit of yard work done.
Snow tires on my daughters car so it's ready for her return to college next weekend.
Had to help my wife move some crap from our ex-sister-in-law's place... the only good thing about that female dog is that she's moving clear across the country. Good riddance!
Took care of a few other minor projects too.
Quite a productive day ann in all.
Now it's bed time. Catch y'all in the morning.

You are right, BMP-60 is a tracked APC with turret mounted 76mm cannon, BRDM is a lighter wheeled vehicle.

This was an early one. Only four tires. Later ones had up to 8. LAWs did a pretty good number on them too. Did a Dragon Live fire in the 80's and it made a total and complete mess out of a BMP 60. A couple of others ground looped theirs.............................
One thing I liked about the Soviet RPG-7 was, it was infinitely reusable, and had different ordinance you could use for different threats (anti-personnel, armor piercing, high explosive) Funny when you see US special forces in Afghan carrying AKs and RPGs, looking like a bunch of Russian backed rebels.

Morning guys. On my laptop this morning. Went to do an update last night and my damn desktop took a crap and locked up on me. My IT guy is coming by tonight to install Windows 7, and fix all the problems I've been having. He is also going to install a wifi "beam" antenna so I can use it at my shop. FOR FREE!
