    We had blue skies until about a 30 minutes before the event - then it got really foggy.

    Meh.

    Didn't I already do that the last time you asked?

    edit: I did.

    Not really a picture, but that '70' flyover is pretty cool:

    The woman driving the car! Turns out cutting in front if a tank isn't the best idea. On the bright side, she was unharmed. And the tank was unscathed as well

    I would be concerned about the state of your military if the tank was not ok.

    Well, a tank always has the right of way. Even if it hasn't.

    That tank has horrible breaking distance.

    Short braking distance is not typically considered an asset for an armored vehicle. In fact, one of their main selling points is their ability to go through, rather than around, obstacles.

    Breaking distance, however, is supposed to be quite long for a modern MBT. This being a British tank, it's entirely possible that it follows in the proud tradition of the Austin Allegro, Morris Marina, and other stalwarts of the British auto industry... and may indeed have a short breaking distance.




    (Merely for amusement's sake. Though the service record of the Challenger 2 is limited to a relatively straightforward deployment in Iraq, it appears to have performed quite well against a variety of armored, unconventional, and ATGM threats. There are other more battle-tested designs out there, certainly, but I suspect the Challenger 2 is somewhere between an adequate and good MBT.)
