Don't really have a favorite military or anything. But favorite military vehicle would be the German Leopard 2A. When it comes to helicopters it's the UH-60 Black hawk helicopter. Then it's the ACR rifle as well as the 50. cal Barrett. Favorite jet is the German Tornado. Also, like the humvee.

Hmm, I'd have to say the United States Marine Corps.
For weapon? Gah, there's too many, but if I had to choose one, it'd be 870 MCS probably because I own the civilian model. :P
For a vehicle, I'd say the LAV-25.
Would we be allowed to post kit that is no longer issued? i.e. WW2 era

Kinda off the top of my head:

 

Specific military? Eh ... I've got no real favourite, but I do like the Canadian Armed Forces ... totally not biased in any way whatsoever ... no but seriously, I also like the Russian Armed Forces, and the US Armed Forces. :P

 

As for favourite vehicle, well ... on the ground, I'm gonna have to go with ... either the BMD-2, BMP-3, or T-90. One of those. For aircraft, I really, really like the MH-6/AH-6 Little Bird. My favourite chopper to fly in Arma! And the Mi-24 Hind is pretty awesome as well. :lol: 

 

Weapon, I'd probably go with an LMG or something, like the M249, or the PK machine gun. ;)

Weapon: M1 Garand, you can NOT beat the classics

Sidearm: M1911 A1

Vehicle: Tossup between the SR-71 'BlackBird' CH-47 'Chinook' ad the AC-130 'Spectre'

 

Proud to say I have seen a retired SR-71 and have Chinooks buzzing overhead at least once a week.

Well, in that case, my favourite plane would have to be the Stuka (dem sirens)

And, my favourite tank would have to be a Tiger 1 (fuckin' beast)

The Tiger... For its day it was a beast.

The fly-overs are always a fun thing to notice, and due to where I live it happens quite often. I live near a military installation and an international airport, so it seems like there is a constant buzz of rotors and engines in the air. I have seen many even fly close enough to identify. Chinook is the most common, least one about every Wednesday, but I have seen a few Blackhawks around, about half a dozen Littlebirds and I swear even a few Apache Longbows. I have heard so many helicopters I can make a good guess at how big it is by the sound alone.  :P

Force: The Royal Navy (1700-1820)

Weapon: Colt 1911 (There's something to a design that's perfectly useful 100 years after it was designed. Few inventions in history have that distinction.)

Vehicle: The Deutsche Reichsbahn Class 44, 50 and 52, as well as the British LNER A1.

The incredible feats of economy, speed and endurance of many wartime locomotives is often completely overlooked in favor of machines that are more visually impressive, or armed. The A1's derived cousin A4 still holds the world record today for fastest steam locomotive. (The A1 would regularly pull double-duty with half the maintenance during WWII, effectively quadrupling its service ability, and many of them still managed to last until the advent of Diesels in the mid-50s.)

Aircraft: McDonnel-Douglas F-15

img-2333902-4-f_15a.jpg

The only aircraft that flies with a Kill:Death ratio of 800:0.

 

Ship: Can't decide.

 

Battle: No battle is glorious.

 

General: If Patton was anything to go by...

Weapon: GAU-8 Avenger I'll see your cute little anti-infantry weapons and raise you a gun so powerful it can stall a plane built to carry it.GAU-8_meets_VW_Type_1.jpg
