Yep.

That's the German World War II, Leichter Ladungsträger, Goliath tracked mine/demolition vehicle, or "Doodlebug," or the "Beetle Tank." It was remote controlled.

The Germans introduced them in 1942, and a total of 7,564 Goliaths were produced throughout the war. They were controlled by a joystick attached to the vehicle via a 650m long cable, steered to a target, and blown up.

Thanks.

I am going to try and get more on SD involved. I will contact another member and ask them to take my turn...perhaps Obi Wan Russell, or someone who is willing.

If I canot find anyone in a day or two, I will post another myself.

Ok, no takers. Either they are on vacation/R&R or not interested at this point.

So here are a couple of pictures. What nation do they operate for, what is the designation, and when were they put into service?

Let's see here it's Stealth, it's American, it's from Oregon Iron works and the Name says it all SEAL Insertion, Observation and Neutralization AKA SEALION. This Stealth boat can carry two RIBS. The Dome on top is a retractable radar,
The second pic features a Electo optical mast and the Radar moved to the front.
