TonyE Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I know the answer but I still like, "stone-age single re-entry vehicle payloads of ICBMs?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhorse64 Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 It looks rather like battleship main gun ammunition in shipping containers.

Akula Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Those look a lot like 12" or 14" coastal defence mortar shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxious Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Pennemunde, V1 or V2 warheads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eclipse_trb Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Just a guess from what tony said could they be test warheads for ICBM's? You know like how dummy bombs are made of concrete cores sometimes (still make a hell of a hole in something if dropped from high enough) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxious Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Okay, joke answer : toxic waste barrels, with construction/signalization cones topped by American WW2 helmets </joke> Very old and decrepit early TACAN antennas ? (nope, not that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akula Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 mines I think you are right mack, those very well could be aerial dropped sea mines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noxious Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Nobody is correct, but somebody is close. Okay, V1/V2 engines ? Can't get Pennemunde out of my head for some reason when I look at that pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
