BEHIND THE SCENES: Tank Skeet Shooting

[Saiko47]

The SK-105 Kürassier is an Austrian light tank or tank destroyer armed with a rifled 105 mm gun in an oscillating turret. It is estimated that over 700 have been producedv

AND, they blow up the skeet with explosives mounted under it, look at the one skeet as it loses its attached explosives, again, kudos for the effort fellas

[1978JeepJ10]

'Scuse me sir, can I borrow your tank for a moment?

[markw76]

What tank is that?

[andieslandies]

@markw76 I think it's an AMX 13 made in France from the 50's to early 70's maybe (not sure of the years).

[WolfFawkes]

@andieslandies That's no tank. That's a Self-Propelled Artillery gun. Probably designed for closer range support since the traverse up doesn't got that far. It's similar in concept to the StuG42 Assault gun crossed with a M18 Hellcat. I'll find out the model number. It's definitely European in origin though, that's no American design. It goes against our concepts. Could be French, but I'm thinking if anything it's a British-French joint design, possibly on an old er style Challenger Chasis.

[WolfFawkes]

@andieslandies Okay, pardon me, you're definitely on the right track. It's at least based on the AMX-13. Due to the design changes on the Chasis, I'm thinking it's a SK-105 Kürassier made by Austria. Took me a little bit to find some links and reference designs. The Austrian model was meant as a Tank Destroyer, the French model is a light tank.

[andieslandies]

@WolfFawkes Thanks, I just glanced at it and made an assumption :)

[WolfFawkes]

@andieslandies That's the best way to find out what something is though. :D Make an assumption and hope it leads you the right way down a path of research.
