Landships II

I saw this picture on Pinterest. In the background there is an A7V. At the underside of the MG there is something attached at the front and back of the MG. Looks like a wire..... Anyone knows what it is? Willem

Armor plate was still in its infancy during WW1, but I wondered about regular steel. Obviously more advanced, but I wondered if tank tracks aged in the same way as they would on those of later eras. Did they rust more readily? BTW I bought a Hermaphrodite British Mark IV tank kit. Really, no other ve...

The Germans heard the British were building Landships in WW1 so they thought they would design one as well.

Bonjour, citoyens! Am in Vaux-en-Amiénois, one of Mephisto's resting places in 1918. This afternoon I stood on what I calculate to be the spot where Mephisto got stuck during the advance on Villers-Bretonneux, or at least close to it. Right opposite Monument Farm, now known as La Ferme de la Couture...

The museum reopened in April after a refurb. Very nicely done, a bit about Gallipoli, etc, but mostly about Aussie role in battle for V-B. There is now a glass case containing the model of Mephisto (about 2 feet long), explanatory information, and a new feature - a video of the two local gents who built i...

From what I understand, this is the first picture of the Mk I tank in a battlefield setting. Interesting camouflage pattern. From IWM collection.

Wayne has been incredibly productive recently - aside from the vehicles there also has been a new plane as well. The attached is Wayne's interpretation of the Oberschlesien tank which was under construction at the end of WW1. There isn't very much reliable information on the tank. The camouflage a...

I know of the 1st Tank vs Tank encounter (Mk.IV vs A7V) but was there ever a French tank vs German tank ? (even a Beutepanzer,) encounter ? If so when / where / What ?

Was ratting through the IWM online image collection and came across two images which were captioned as a Mark IV tank fitted with the Williams-Janney transmission and an uncaptioned third image of the rear of a Mark IV with a curious construction added to the rear of the hull. Is this the external par...

A few questions arise from this photo 1. What would be the two colours on the flag? 2.What would the letter T stand for? 3.What colour would the letter T be? 4. Are the dark lines on the gun shield and sponson there to camouflage where the location of the visions slots are to fool snipers? 5. why are the dar...

Came across this picture , there are 5 I think MK IV beutepanzers (could be wrong on the Mk type)

Hi Everyone I am after information on the british artillery legging for the rider. The right leg?has a?steel plate running down the legging but I need photos. Regards' Terry

Found these images from Dec 2016 - a running Renault EG with GPF gun. The gun seems to be missing the spades. They might be in the boxes attached to the trail arms. The boxes weren't on the original GPF. The caption said the tractor and gun were at Les Invalides before the celebration of St Barbara's day i...

This was posted earlier but what colour would the numbers 2324 be? I have only seen white numbering before. Do you have photos of WW1 tanks with non-white numbering?
