1983 – M2 Trials at Upnor / Hameln
© Glenn Dymond
I have received the following images from Glenn Dymond! He was stationed at the 3 RTR at the time and was with his chieftain in Hamelin! The tank was charged an additional weight with 10 tonnes, to test the M2 ferries, how much weight they hold out! Because the Challenger 1 main battle tank should come soon for the introduction! The ANTAR tank transporter was on 16 TK Tptr Squadron!
Thank you Glenn for these pictures!

Die folgenden Bilder habe ich von Glenn Dymond erhalten! Er war damals beim 3 RTR stationiert und war mit seinem Chieftain in Hameln! Der Kampfpanzer wurde mit 10t zusätzlichem Gewicht belastet, um die M2 Fähren zu testen, wieviel Gewicht diese aushalten! Denn der Challenger 1 Kampfpanzer sollte bald zur Einführung kommen! Der Antar Panzertransporter war von der 16th Tk Tptr Squadron!
Vielen Dank Glenn für diese Bilder!
