Hi everybody
Here is my next question.
What kind of vehicle is pictured here?

Regards and happy Easter
Armin

[bam]

An ex Frog..

Unic P-107 U304 armoured halftrack with a pak 36 for decoration and added rear ventilation..?

[arminfreitag]

Hi Bam
absolutely correct. It's your turn now.

Regards
Armin

[bam]

Ok, what is this exactly?
.

[arminfreitag]

Hi Bam
that's the armoured box containing a transmitter radio set
attached to the back of the turret of a Pzkpfw III (probably Ausf J)
that was used to control the BIV Ladungsträger.

Regards
Armin

[bam]

Damn you're good! Yes it's an Aust J too.
it is the early version, with the aerial mounted forwards, not the later version with the aerial at the rear like this below.

Hi everybody,
here my next question.
Identify this vehicle please.

@Bam
thanks for your nice words.
Is it possible that you post the uncropped versions of the pictures from your last posts?

Regards
Armin

[bam]

Here they are, from panzertracts 3-5.

Your quiz photo is a krupp protze armoured with 5mm armour sheet, and carrying a 3.7cm pal 36 with an expanded gunshield.
I think 2 were made, used in summer 41 in Russia, and never seen again...

[arminfreitag]

Hi Bam,
thanks for the pictures.
Your answer was very fast and absolutely right.
Here some more pictures of this modification.
And over to you.

Regards
Armin

The armoured protze was a gebirgs division asset, how interesting¡ They are wearing mountain caps in 2 nd last photo.
I’ve seen a photo of one of the guns with four kill rings on the barrel, so it earnt its keep....but the open sides make its use very tricky, only useful against one direction, which can work in panzerjaeger tactics.

[bam]

Ok, to beat armin is going to take something special..., this is a hard one...whats this and what's it from?
.

[arminfreitag]

Hi Bam
that's a good one.
I think I have an idea already what it could be, but I need some time to check.
I hope someone else comes up with the solution because it's getting
harder to find good questions.

Regards
Armin

Agree, it's hard work! This one above is the result of some long digging, so I'm glad it's caused you to pause.
Rare vehicles aren't enough anymore, we all know them really, as this website exposes everything...its now about finding an unusual angle or something.
