Axis History Forum

This is an apolitical forum for discussions on the Axis nations, as well as the First and Second World Wars in general hosted by Marcus Wendel's Axis History Factbook in cooperation with Michael Miller's Axis Biographical Research, Christoph Awender's WW2 day by day, Dan Reinbold's Das Reich and Christian Ankerstjerne's Panzerworld.

SWS

Discussions on the vehicles used by the Axis forces.
Long-time forum member Ron Klages (1939 - 2007) generously shared his knowledge and the results of his impressive research with the forum, and this section has therefore been renamed in his honour.
Hosted by Christian Ankerstjerne

SwS pictures are rare,so are SwS parts

I came a cross some 2 unidentified wheels on e-bay,after some digging through my files i found out these are SWS wheels .

And the start price is 1 euro ,have a look at the wheels.

Looks to me like a Skoda 6ST6L with a Flak 38 in the cargo bed. Here is a photo of a vehicle that I have tentatively identified as a Yugoslav Skoda 6ST6L with a flakvierling 38 from a Serbian site (http://stef124.tripod.com or http://elektron.tmf.bg.ac.yu/bojan/ I don't remember which one exactly). I looked it up in an Olyslager organisation book (Fighting Vehicles 1940-1945) and Skoda 6ST6L is the closest match.Can anyone provide more info?

It's a nice truck. Some more examples of the armoured model.
