I had a tipoff, and acting on the tipoff I left the house at 6:30 and raced down, they had left earlier than I thought so I didn't get to my intended point. There is more tanks tomorrow, so I should get better pics. Her is the video, sorry for the sound.

We have an Oshkosh factory a mile down the road from where I live.

I knew they were built in Wales but never knew where. I might have to give it a scout one day. Where is the factory.

Just up the road from the Royal Mint Llantrisant.

looks like the tanks are the Challenger mk2. Not quite sure on the AEV.

tanks are Chally 2's and the Arv is a Chally arv.. thankfully the ones we shifted weren't up armoured!
