There are a number of repositories which hold objects in various formats.
One of the best sources would be the Avalon site which is now maintained
by Viewpoint DataLabs. Take a look at:

        http://avalon.viewpoint.com/

They have a good collection of military vehicles and aircraft, mostly in
OBJ or 3DS format which Performer should be able to handle okay. Although
I don't know for sure, I would imagine that these are just plain
geometries and I doubt that they will have any articulated parts.
