To be honest I almost forgot... :zip:

Maybe the following links could be useful

www.armeemuseum.ch/index.php?id=35

On the page are various links to Swiss museums, including Forte Mondascia (this is in Italian only, something for Massimo)

Second:
www.bunkermuzeum.hu/Bu...jc2_en.htm

This looks like your page Trevor
Map of Switzerland with waymarkings at various museums and an link to the museum

They have also an map of Germany

Thanks - I had come across those sites before, but you've reminded me to check through them for collections in Switzerland we might have missed.

I considered creating a registry for Switzerland, but I have other priorities at the moment

But I would be more than happy to help if anybody would like to work on one. Main problem would be, as always, to track preserved AFVs inside military areas

Forte Mondascia is well know, it's the nearest tank from my home Laughing

Hi folks,

another page with info about various museums

www.aviationmuseum.eu/index.html

Most of the museums listed are "airplane" museums, however other museums are also listed
Besides that, most "airplane" museums also have the equipment present to get the plane down from the sky

Either man portable, wheeled or tracked Wink

Don't forget Massimo and I are working on Preserved Tanks in Switzerland:

At the moment when I find something about Austria or Switzerland, I just save the information or the webpage link
That's all

Don't forget Massimo and I are working on Preserved Tanks in Switzerland:

preservedtanks.com/Loc...p;Select=4

so anything you can add to that would be greatly appreciated! In addition to those locations shown there, Fort Giroud and Forte Mondascia are in the pipeline.

Is there a ZSU-57-2 in Militärhistorischen Museum der Bundeswehr, Dresden (Germany)

or somewhere in Germany a East Germany FAB 500U ("FAB" stands for Fahrausbildungspanzer) - ZSU-57-2 converted into a training vehicle for T-54 drivers

May be it is also interesting to take a look at German thread about museums with some smaller places:
www.modellbauforen.de/...act=SF;f=4
Regards Robert

I took over the running of Henriks Military Museums Site and though its slightly out of date (sic) its recently been made available online yet again - it may help a little...

Only from Germany or also small neighbors?

Well Robert, my plan at the moment is just Germany
I think it will be enough work to make that one at the moment

And concerning the small neighbours, I don't think you mean Belgium (list al ready existing) and The Netherlands (list in progress)

More likely Österreich und vielleicht ein kleines bisschen der Schweiz Wink

(that would be Austria and Switzerland, for the English readers) Mr. Green

At the moment when I find something about Austria or Switzerland, I just save the information or the webpage link
That's all

However it would be much more practical if some-one who lived in that certain country would make the list
For example that some-one who lives in Vienna would make an list for Austria

If you get the message Wink

We could help the person with an template of the register, photo's and stuff like that

That is about the way the others talked me in to make an list for The Netherlands Rolling Eyes

Thanks again guys

Michel

The vehicles from Military museum of Vienna you can find here:
www.ipms.at/index.php?...&Itemid=82

plus they have nicely restaurated Hetzer (G38) in running condition which is not displayed + SU 76 wreck which was found in Danube some time ago.

Regards from Vienna Robert

I still looks like an army base, a small part still is I believe. They have a lot of stuff there, and thats the biggest problem. Everything is parked so close together, taking decent pictures is a big problem. Most of the collection is outside but under a roof.

Michel

Massimo_Foti · Posted: Mon Jan 11, 2010 8:53 pm Post subject: Re: Germany AFV Registers

I've been there almost 10 years ago. The collection was already impressive, but it was clear they were transitioning from an army base to a public museum.
What's the status of things right now?

Michel, did you managed to visit Lesany? I remember we talked about that last spring

Yes been there a week before the big show, it was a short visit, I had only 2 hours time but stayed almost 4 hours. Result was that I had to cancel the visit to Darkovicy.

Michel

Massimo_Foti · Posted: Mon Jan 11, 2010 8:15 pm Post subject: Re: Germany AFV Registers

The most difficult will be to find informations about vehicles in small towns, military bases, military areas.

Yes, that's always the case. But you have to start somewhere, and an incomplete register is better than nothing.
