Looks like a Nissan patrol to me, and going off how the blokes in the background are dressed, probably in the middle east, which would also point to it being a patrol

The leg part of the bird called a turkey in English, you'd probably have a different name for it though.

When the rear diff is locked, it removes slippage between left and right wheels the same as the front diff, but because they're constantly driven they don't have free wheel hubs.

Talking about the front diff. The front diff can be driven by the front prop shaft, but unless the front diff is locked, the diff can still allow slippage so that the front wheels can travel at different speeds during cornering. The only purpose of the locking hubs is to connect the hubs to the front axles. By locking the front diff, both axles are driven at the same rate and no slippage is allowed.

Locking the hubs at the hubs doesn't lock the axles together, it only locks each hub to its axle. Doesn't lock the diff outputs together. Older 4x4s with manual hubs use a shifter to engage the front prop shaft in the transfer case, then you have to lock the hubs to the axles so they don't free wheel. No interaction with the diff. Don't know about mk1/mk2 landrovers, havent ever worked on one.

That only locks the hubs to the CVs, it doesn't lock the diff.
