That looks like a Panhard 178 so it should be the standard 25mm cannon

Identification already done. It is a Panhard 204(f) with a 4.5cm BT cannon, i.e. a cannon from the Soviet BT tank.

Hello all,

This one looks like an Adler Diplomat (3G?) to me but I haven't seen the front before. Does anyone know about this type of front?

Thanks,
Mjie

Hello Mjie,
:welcome:
To me it looks like a standard Diplomat 3G with a half open radiator cover.

What exactly is strange about the front?

What type of turret and armament does this variant of the Panhard 174 have? Is it a vehicle used by the Germans?

Hi Darek
I looked at some different guns and think from the
looks the 2 cm Kwk 38 comes closest. I have no idea
about the turret. If you find out more please post it.

Regards
Armin

Armin , as I understand it, you don't have another photo of such an armed vehicle in your collection?

Hi Darek
I'm sorry, but your picture was new to me and I didn't know this version before.

Hi Darek
I think it's one of these Pz I Ausf B converted into an ambulance vehicle.

Hi all
recent Ebay picture. Seems to be another variation in the turret of the Panhardt 178
and also with Vorpanzer. Do you know more about it Darek?

Armin
