Thanks a lot Rich,
With your help I was able to find it on Holger's site;http://www.kfzderwehrmacht.de/Homepage_ ... 0-181.html
Very interesting, based on the G 3a chassis. German designation Panzerspähwagen L 202 (h). She certainly looks well armed!
Cheers,
Max

Hi Max
Spanish AAA-1937 - a Spanish built copy of the Russian BA 3/6 type armored cars based on Chevrolet 6x4 chassis. This one has been fitted with a T-26 turret. Not sure if this is Republican or Nationalist as captured vehicles were used by both sides.

Thanks, Sturm. I see that the Republican Red/Yellow stripes haven't yet been painted over.

Hi everybody
noone for my question above?

Here another question. Anybody knows what kind of armoured car is pictured here?
The caption says:
Sound recording device in an armoured car
Some reports coming from the front are recorded by the men of the PK directly during the battle,
even in the armoured car itself. Our picture shows a view into the turret of an armoured car,
where a sound engineer is operating the sound recording device. The speaker can give his report
in the car in the front line or he can be connected to the armoured car through the microphone with
a long cable while lying in the field position.

Regards
Armin
Hi Armin,
Acording to this it's the "Interior of a German AAC-1937 turret". Same pic different caption https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/spain/AAC-1937.php

Hello Ali,

Your first vehicle is a Horch 108 KFz69, here used as a tractor for light artillery. Interestingly the registration is Luftwaffe(Air Force), but the crew uniforms are Heer(Army). The second is an Opel Blitz,

Cheers,
Kerry

Hi Kerry, hi Alif,

here an addition: the pic was made 12th February in Tripoli, Lybia, during a parade. The unit must be the 4th or 5th light AA battery (20mm), I./AA regiment 33 (mot.) (Luftwaffe), 5th Leichte Division. So the vehicle is a "leichter Flakkraftwagen" Kfz. 81 (light AA motor vehicle).

Best regards

Bert
