It shouldn't be about size - besides, we all know that it's smaller when it's cold. This should explain Russia and Canada ;o)

In thinking about the known World Wide Reserve of CMPs I wonder what other ways could we put this question:
CMPs per square mile/kilometer CMPs per capita Cheers Phil

Phil and anyone else,
Would there be someone keen enough to estimate how many CMPS are mobile in the world, how many left in any condition? I am sure this is somewhere in MLU but how many CMP's were built in the first place? Maybe a start on the first question could be an estimate of how many CMP's went to (including those partly constructed) to the various countries during WW2. Lang |

Those numbers are from Greggs Canada's Fighting Vehicles. For those who'd like more details, here's the page in question.

You know, if you put a pin in Darwin on the map of Australia and go to the furtherest point away, you will end up at my place. Paynesville Victoria 3880. is the most distant town from Darwin as the crow flies on the Australian Mainland. (Don't know the exact distance though.)
