    Re: Identify vehicle from ww2

    Looks like either a very rare Kübelwagen on tracks, or the "Kätzchen" (troop/ammo carrier) not sure.

    Cromtec´s first suggestion is the correct one. It is a halftrack variant of the Kübelwagen. Only prototypes were made (two different versions) but neither one reached production status.

    The "Kätchen" looked very different with large roadwheels and whilst some references tells us that it was designed as a APC, some more recent ones tells us that it wasnt, and that in fact it was designed as a ammunition carrier. Since as far as I know, no Kätchens survived the war (only a few was ever made) I guess we will never know which idea is the correct one.

    To matty:

    They look Russian to me...

    Big one looks like some tractor conversion, while the smaller one is a mgun tankette, a mobile mgun nest. Wikipedia has some data on both of them, i think.

    Second tank reminds me of the 'Su' series. First somehow reminds me of a very early Vickers Tank/Variant .

    This is a mobile bavarian beer tent!
    And what you state as a commanders room is an early stealth prototype of a beer barrel.

    Re: Identify vehicle from ww2

    Look's like its used in the V2 launch sites.. Rember watching a program on it long time ago, but thats a few years ago. :x

    So the trailer could be the bit delopyed for putting the V2, looks about right, becuase it has that point and the turnhing bit for aiming as far as i rember.

    But, I could be totaly wrong, my memory blured.. :x
