Pink weaponry, continued.

Ah, why not?

People brought up the SAS Pink Panthers...

SAS Pink Panther Land Rover.

And while we noted "Mountbatten Pink" for warships, there aren't any color photos of same... so we'll substitute a much brighter shade of pink, as applied to the USS Balao.

Not your father's Yellow Submarine - the USS <em>Balao</em> gussied up for her movie role in Operation Petticoat.

Even if it was for a movie...

There are two more in the Flash Traffic/Extended Entry... because, well, one is embarrassing.

That pink JS3 2 that was on the plinth in Prague and painted pink by David Czerny has been moved to a military museum in Lesany... and it's still pink.

Click the pic of the tank above to go to a forum where there are a lot of pink tanks...

And then there is this abomination, an offense against all that is right and good in the world... a pink howitzer.

Nice crew though. You can read the story about Gothic Image's work by clicking here, or clicking the image.

Now that rooftop abomination from yesterday got its just desserts...

it certainly appears that you've brought out the big guns today.

I'm willing to overlook many things when the photo features a shapely woman in a pinup/noseart pose.The Abbot is only a 105mm anyway, so painting a girly gun pink would be appropriate. :-)

Not only is that Howitzer pink, it's blowing bubbles. I would think that the beautiful woman sitting on top of it would half make up for that fact...

Our friend on the Abbott gives a whole new meaning to "Gunbunny"

...an offense against all that is right and good in the world... a pink howitzer. I saw the chick and the pink popgun, but I completely missed the offense against all that is right and good in the world -- did you sneak a Twitchy Bill mug or somethin' similar in there?

o.0 Freud would have a field day with that sub, methinks.

I cannot help but feel partially responsible for this.
