Hi Jose4,
Perhaps an Adler Primus, they were supplied in small numbers to the RAD, although the wheel hubs look odd. Maybe it has minimal "hubcaps".
Cheers,
Kerry.

Does anyone have any ideas about what this tank/turret may be? I can't seem to match it to any vehicle I can think of.

I think it may be the turret of an AAC 1937 armoured car, the converted Chevrolet trucks of the Spanish Republicans during the Spanish Civil War. I don't have a photograph I'm afraid but i'm sure there will be some online. As you probably know, some defeated republicans crossed into France with a number of these vehicles at the end of the civil war and they were impounded by the French and then later by the Germans during WW2. A variety of turrets with various armaments were fitted to the armoured cars.

I found a link to some pictures and info - https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/spain/AAC-1937.php

Best wishes

Hi Christian.
I think this is a Soviet armored vehicle BA-I. The mask of the 37 mm PS-1 cannon is similar to your photograph.

PS: Christian, do you have any data on Danish trucks Triangel, period 1930-45?

Hoss65 and Andriy, thank you for your help. I think Andriy is right, with the off-center gun and peculiar bump for the driver's cabin.

Andriy, I did find one article that seems quite thorough. It's in Danich, but Google Translate should be a reasonable job of translating it to English:
https://viaretro.dk/2017/02/triangel-de ... briker-as/

There's also a book, but again, in Danish. The Danish work for truck is 'lastbil', which should help you find a lot of photos. Here is a list from the Danish association of local archives:

Thanks to Christian for the second link (I already read the first one).
Is this book for sale on eBay?

Hi Sturm,
Possibly Citroen Kegresse C6 P19. I will do some more looking, but I think others will respond soon with the absolute answer.
Cheers,
Kerry.

Hi Kerry, hi Sturm 78,

it would be nice to have the absolute answer, but I don´t have, only assumptions.
First to the pic with the halftrack posted on 28 Aug 2020: I think it could be a Citroen-Kegresse type P 19. Here a pic of this vehicle, but with another superstructure.
The vehicle on the last pic could be a Citroen-Kegresse type P 17.
Maybe we can get the absolute answer by someone else.

Best regards

Bert

Hi Sturm 78,

Hi all,

to Your questions about the following trucks:

I think it is the type 4,5 LR. (source of the pic: ebay)

Hi guys.
Kerry is right. Very similar to Citroen-Kegresse P 19B.

Thanks to all for your answers. The P17 and P19 are quite similar....How is it possible to distinguish between both versions ?

In addition, it seems that several different types of bodywork were used in both models.... :?

Well, It is very possible that you are right....
Thanks for your answer

About Vomag trucks Type 4, Type 4,5 and Type 5 are all very similar... :roll:
