Can anyone out there identify what I believe to be a tank optic but I'm not sure.

Re: Please identify this large optic.
can you please read the markings on the optic?
I can make just "Tz" and a "2" in the top pic, because of the flash glare
or maybe a pic of the stencil on the box..

T.Z.T.2 and 2X used on the Pz.Kpfw.1 Models A& B according to "The Handbook on German Military Forces" TM-E 30-451, though they do go on and say they did not know which vehicle or gun it was for.

Thanks for your reply but did you read the coding correctly i.e. t.z.'F'.2 not 'T'.
