The Stormer HVM (High Velocity Missile) is a short-range air defense system. It was developed primarily to counter the threat of attack helicopters and low-flying aircraft posed to armored formations. This air defense system is in service with the British Army. The first of 151 systems entered service in 1997. The only export operator is Oman.
This air defense system is equipped with Starstreak HVM missiles. Launchers are located towards the rear together with their target sensors. The Starstreak missiles have a two-stage solid propellant rocket motor and travel at more than three times the speed of sound (Mach 3.5). Each missile contains three high-density darts with impact fuses and explosive warheads, to make multiple hits on the target. The darts are released as the second stage of the motor burns out. Missiles have a range of 1 500 - 5 500 meters and can counter even high performance low-flying aircraft. Service ceiling for these missiles is 1 000 m. The Starstreak HVM has a semi-automatic line of sight laser beam riding guidance. Missiles are guided on the target by the operator, who tracks the target using the optically stabilized sight.
It is worth noting, that the Starstreak missiles are also effective against ground targets. It is estimated, that darts have sufficient kinetic energy to penetrate the front armor of an IFV.
Eight ready to fire missiles are stored in the launchers and up to 12 reload missiles are carried inside the hull. It is worth mentioning that the Starstreak missiles are also launched form a three-round lightweight launcher and a man portable shoulder launcher.
Vehicle has a roof-mounted panoramic weapon sight and an air defense alerting device for target recognition and prioritization. The Stormer air defense system is capable of rapid engagement and has a high hit probability.
Vehicle has a crew of three, including commander, operator and driver.
This air defense system is based on a modified Alvis Stormer armored personnel carrier chassis. Vehicle is powered by a Perkins turbocharged diesel engine, developing 250 hp. It seems that this missile carrier is amphibious with some preparation.
Sources from the UK MoD claim, that since 2009 Stormers are being gradually decommissioned, mainly because the threat of an airborne attack on Western forces has almost completely disappeared.
Hope you enjoy!

The U.S. Army's troops won't have any issues seeing in the dark, through thick mist, or in obscure settings thanks to its new night-vision goggles. The Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binocular (ENVG-B) goggles are a clear creation of how the Army is embracing modernization.
And quite frankly, as the Lancer Brigade said on Twitter, "You've never seen night vision like this!"
Instead of the typical laser-green monochrome you'd expect to associate with night-vision goggles, the ENVG-B ones offer views that would fit right into a futuristic video game. Clear neon white outlines of people and artillery, detailed trees and brush, bright light blue figures, and tactical information are all displayed right in front of the soldier's eyes.
Hope you enjoy!!

Some stunning footage of the some of the most beautiful Warbirds aircraft of World War 2 flying in Hawaii.
Sept. 2, 2020, marks 75 years since Japan signed papers of surrender on the deck of the USS Missouri, officially ending World War II. Plans to commemorate the occasion with special film showings, visits from out-of-state veterans and more have been scrapped (though you can still watch a livestream of the International Wreath Ceremony on Wednesday, Sept. 2), but one celebration will go on.
In early August, planes from around the nation arrived at Pearl Harbor. This weekend, Aug. 29 and Aug. 30, 16 WWII-era aircraft will fly in Legacy of Peace aerial parades over most of Oʻahu before the final flight on Sept. 2.
Here are some of the planes that will feature:
A North American SNJ/AT- 6 Texan which was the most widely used advanced training aircraft in the allied inventory.
A North American B-25 Mitchell, represents a medium bomber used by almost all Allied air forces. B-25 bombers were used in the famous Doolittle Raid on Tokyo.
Grumman FM-2 Wildcat that was a carrier and land-based fighter flown by the U.S. Navy and Marines in battles such as Guadalcanal, the Coral Sea, Midway and the Solomons.
Grumman TBM Avenger, brought into service in 1942, Avengers were the primary US Navy torpedo bombers in WWII and were used for the first time at the Battle of Midway in early June, 1942.
North American P-51D Mustang which excelled as a long-range, high altitude bomber escort. The Mustang became well-known for escorting the bombers over Europe and was one of the first escort fighters over Berlin.
Consolidated/Boeing Canada PBY Catalina, were primarily used for long range patrol and reconnaissance missions, anti-submarine warfare, as well as search and rescue. Thirty three Catalinas were destroyed during the December 7th, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, leaving only 6 serviceable examples on the islands after the Imperial Japanese Navy departed the area.
North American T-28 Trojan served with the U.S. Air Force, Navy and Marines beginning in the early 1950, and proved a successful ground attack aircraft in a variety of conflicts too. Dan Hill will pilot the T-28 coming to Hawaii aboard USS Essex.

Main Battle Tanks need gun ammunition like all other weapons of war. The tank is only as good as the loader that is providing the firepower. The main guns of most modern day tanks require the shells to be loaded either manually by a tank crewman or automatically by a tank auto-loader. The autoloader has flaws as does any tank soldier. And example being the T-90 and the M1A2 Abrams, the vehicles have their own way of fighting on the battlefield.
In this video however it goes to show that things can go wrong!
Hope you enjoy!!

The M247 Sergeant York DIVAD (Division Air Defense) was a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun (SPAAG), developed by Ford Aerospace in the late 1970s. Based on the M48 Patton tank, it replaced the Patton's turret with a new one that featured twin radar-directed Bofors 40 mm rapid-fire guns. The vehicle was named after Sergeant Alvin York, a famous World War I hero.
The Sergeant York was intended to fight alongside the M1 Abrams and M2 Bradley in the U.S. Army, in a role similar to the Soviet ZSU-23-4 and German Flakpanzer Gepard. It would replace the M163 Vulcan Air Defense System and MIM-72 Chaparral, ad hoc systems of limited performance that had been introduced when the more advanced MIM-46 Mauler failed to mature.
Despite the use of many off the shelf technologies that were intended to allow rapid and low-cost development, a series of technical problems and massive cost overruns resulted in the cancellation of the project in 1985.
