The US Army had their Maneuver Conference at Ft. Benning a couple of weeks ago. I've been looking high and low for reports about the various displays but its been almost non-existent. Even the major manufacturers aren't putting out press releases on their participation there. Maybe its a issue with how they want to present themselves to the public but the only place that seemed to have any info on it was...wait for it...World of Tanks Blog, THE CHIEFTAIN'S HATCH. The pics below are from that blog.
Sidenote: What made the Army decide to move Tanks down to Ft. Benning instead of keeping them at Ft. Knox? Hell, Soldiers would hate it but Ft. Irwin would have made more sense.
Sidenote 1: I wonder what the bill to BAE is to move all that armor to these exhibitions? Its got to be a small fortune.
