Guess what wont fit across an M60AVLB's bridge without removing the little guard rails off the side haha.
Would be neat to see it in or under a 53 though. I rebuilt T64 gas turbines for 5 years. Those aren't in the K models but I still have a spot in my heart for 53s 
The last 3 years I was in I spent on V22s. My least favorite aircraft as a passenger haha. |
I love the Osprey except going from Airplane mode to Helo mode. It is like slamming on the brakes and your stomach reminding you that you ate too much three days ago.
We had BARC/LARCs built in 1953 out in Desert Storm, my grandkids will have Humvees around when it is their turn to do whatever.
