Random Picture Thread

Thanks Charlie. But Thats not the one I saw. Im fairly certain this vessel was brought into a Europe port, scandinavia I think. The Hog was a lot more pronounced then the Pasha.

I need to find those photos, they were really good.

Thanks though Charlie.

K9

 

Do you mean this K9?

 

Good hog

Thats a great picture of a hog.....Now if you could just get it into the drydock..

Here is a good picture of sag.

 

Safewalrus.

Not a bad guess. F116 is HMS Amythest a modified Black Swan class. The earlier Black Swan class together with Loch class sloops made up Captain Frederic Johnny Walker's Second Escort Group of WWII.

Pericles

 

Thanks folks, That information will be appreciated.

 

Safie, can you give a point to Pericles? - I gave one to you & wont allow one to Per... for his info. What/Who was the pennant for? Amythist? if not, what should hers be?

Nice Humbolts.

 

Missy Lee, much as I'd like to give Pericles a few points the machine won't let me! Getting a bit tedious this system isn't it?

Pericles - your right, after checking it was the Amythest (of Yangste River fame), but her pennent number for most of her life was I believe U16. It only became an F (frigate) after we joined NATO (when it was first formed) just after the war (WWII). I was thinking more of the type 12 frigate of the same number (the name escapes me at the moment) most which were launched about the time of the scrapping of the Amythest etc.

That top picture is another "Oh ****!" moment.

K9

 

So might the middle one be considered. I really like those low level over water shots of aircraft going really fast in profile looks really spectacular - got anymore?

Sorry Karch, still restricted to tokens ::::: ::::: ::::: for the last one -mas-

 

The B-1 over the lake looks as though it could be a photoshop, I can't vouch for it.

I saw a YouTube video of a B-1 in Afghanistan buzzing our troops for some kicks and applause. It either went supersonic or kicked in the afterburners at very low level as their was a loud boom.

They are not supposed to be able to go supersonic at tree top level, at least that is what they tell us.

NOTE: edited to BOLD the "nearly" , which I guess is easy to miss.
