We had the vehclle in the weels and tracks thread, was too lazy to look it up, the full name was there too. http://www.ww2f.com/armor-armored-fighting-vehicles/46171-wheel-track-vehicles-2.html Post #30 has a pic in the weel configuration, also from Centro Tecnico Motorizzazione (CETEM) archives plate 52M. So how about this (attempting to upload pcture ..... again .....) View attachment 12273 Success !!!
You obviously identified it. AFAIK it was known just as as "carro di rottura" though the name applied to other vehicles as well including the early prototypes of what eventually became the M11/39. Your go
That isn't a M8..it looks like something that Oddball and his crew would make from scratch if given the chance. No, not a Panzer 1...hmm...it isn't some kind of Sherman? CLUE PLEASE~
I think Panzer212 is right that it is european, and the road wheels do look Czech, but that exhausts my knowledge.
That very picture is on the tanks! site for the CKD AH-IV but it's in the Iranian section !!! http://mailer.fsu.edu/~akirk/tanks/Iran/AH-IV-iranianprototype.jpg
Yes indeed it is, The write up is as follows; The CKD AH-IV, Purchased from Czechoslovakia, this tank proved popular with the Iranians, These tanks were unique, The tank was built by CKD, The main gun came from Skoda and the machine guns from ZB, These manufacturers were all competing but put there differences aside in pusuit of a sale! View attachment 12284 Panzer 212 you have a go
My first guess would be a Japanese light tank in Truk lagoon, but I don't know the type. In any event you get kudo's for presentation!
Good thoughts! Now you only need to know the type, an hint it is one of two tanks and it has 15tons of weight.
