GHAZNI PROVINCE, Afghanistan — Brig. Gen. Gary Volesky, 1st Cavalry Division Deputy Commanding General (second from right) and members of his personal security detail run to their UH-60 Black Hawk in the Deh Yak district Oct. 19. Volesky and his team were conducting a battlefield circulation to several ISAF positions south of Kabul in the Deh Yak and Mata Khan districts.
Black Knights on Patrol
The men and women of Task Force 3-66 are actively patrolling western Paktika province, taking the fight to the insurgents. Since assuming responsibility for the area, the Black Knights have been methodically clearing district after district to allow the provincial government to provide security and development. Western Paktika is essentially a rest stop for insurgents linked to Sirajuddin Haqqani traveling from Pakistan and continuing west. The heat, elevated terrain, and harsh landscape of Paktika province are unforgiving allies of these enemies of Afghanistan. With limited road networks the primary mode of travel here is walking. The relentless training planned and executed by the leaders of Task Force 3-66 back in Germany is now paying off.
Soldiers rest inside a Humvee as the sun sets after a hard day’s training in the north Georgia mountains near Camp Frank D. Merrill, Sept. 21, 2011. The soldiers belong to the 82nd Airborne Division’s 1st Brigade Combat Team.

Ook vandaag mocht DBC weer een aantal transporten verzorgen voor de US Army en de oefening Atlantic Resolve. De 189 052 is met een fraaie trein vrijwel volledig beladen met M1A2 Abrams tanks onderweg over de BR bij Opheusden.

A minifig I made a while back for a potential Sniper Elite brickfilm I was going to animate back in 2015 but sadly never got round to. Would you like me to create a lego sniper elite animation? Let me know down below.

The Skycranes, or “derricks of the sky”, can and have carried pretty much anything that doesn’t exceed their payload capacity. Their tasks during Vietnam included: vehicle transport (trucks and other lighter, wheeled vehicles), fuselage salvage and recovery, makeshift bomber (could carry the 10,000 lb “daisy cutter” bomb for clearing jungle), carring “Brown Water Navy” boats, troops, field hospitals, command posts, artillery pieces, etc. The Skycranes salvaged 380 downed aircraft during the Vietnam War, saving $210 million.
In civil use, the S-64s are still a powerful and irreplaceable heavy-lifter. They install high-voltage powerline towers, lift AC units onto highrises, fight wildfires, install antennas on broadcast towers, aid in the restoration of the Statue of Freedom, and many other things.
The model:
Features - detailed cockpit with opening doors (easily accessible), working main winch, 4 external hooks, geared rotors, stowable blades, blade holders, cargo pod with technic motor and battery box for motorization (I’ll have to design some more cargo pods in Studio that actually have a detailed interior)
The stickers are from various Brickmania Huey sticker packs. I also based the main rotor design on the Brickmania CH-53E (which was derived from the Skycrane irl) main rotor. It’s generally the same technique, but I had to do some troubleshooting to get it down to 6 blades instead of 7.
Well, this was a really fun aircraft to design and then motorize. I really needed this to get my confidence and motivation back for going into my long term ship projects this summer. I hope I can get this in Studio soon so I can maybe release the instructions for reaching 5k followers (on Instagram). Oh, and instructions of my other models are very close to being ready on Rebrickable. I’ll have more info soon.
The US Quartermaster Corps developed a series of "standard" trucks for military use. This was one of the heaviest, rated at 7-1/2 to 9-tons. Similar trucks were also made by Corbitt, Biederman, Hug and Indiana. Hercules model HCX power.
