Amazing photos. Here's my contribution to WW2 in Australia (not in Australia as such, but when the Japanese bombed us with their subs and planes).

Fighting along side our motherland, England in WW1, and at the defense of Australia's allies during WW2 and Vietnam,

There's plenty more, will add from time to time.

If I'm not mistaken this is battle ship Iowa -US with triple 16" guns

Image
Yamato - Japanese probably the biggest ship ever made (Of it's kind of cource aka battle ship)
18.1" guns and later planned Super Yamato with 20" guns which project was canceled due to the outperformance of the air-carriers - sadly :(

Nice pics Bastet :shock:

No, I wouldn't say I am into weapons. I just think these pictures are pretty amazing, especially the black and white ones. I also like fighter jets and some helicopters. Suppose that's what you get with a father that is mad on both world wars and having 2 brothers.

I love that pic of that German 50mm Pak 38 anti-tank gun, with nothing but a few benches for
protection, just show what urban fighting was like.

I second that, great photos. I can't imagine living back then either. It's depressing and scary.
