1. "Firepower" - Artillery of the Modern German Army
Artillery is an essential component of any self-respecting army,
and the German Bundeswehr has an impressive artillery force. Its
main weapon systems are the M109A3GEA2, Panzerhaubitze 2000 and
MLRS, and these weapon systems are explained in considerable
detail, accompanied by a broad cross-section of photos. The article
also covers associated equipment such as radar and recce
systems.
2. Italian Pumas in Action
Italy has produced the Puma series of armored vehicles in 4x4 and
6x6 configurations. This article examines principally the Puma 6x6
version while on active service in Afghanistan and Iraq. The
detailed photos offer good coverage of vehicles both internally and
externally, and the text offers background information.
3. Iron Warrior
The 1st Armored Division of the U.S. Army is based in Germany, and
this article describes a major exercise conducted by constituent
units. The whole range of vehicles operated by the U.S. Army (e.g.
M113, Bradley, Abrams) have been captured by the camera lens as
they participate in this large-scale FTX in various locales.
4. Iraqistan at NTC
There have been many articles and books written on U.S. troops in
Iraq and Afghanistan, but where do units do their pre-deployment
training? The National Training Center (NTC) in California's Mojave
Desert offers the perfect environment for troops to hone their
skills as they work amidst Iraqi role-players and "insurgents".
This article looks at the current type of training conducted at the
NTC.
