Does anyone have a listing of the tanks on the old mile of t
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Tha half-track appears to be an Sd.Kfz. 251 - someone please correct me if I am wrong. The museum originally had at three or four of them, including one with a rocket launcher frame and one Sd.Kfz. 251/16 Flamm PzW flamethrower vehicle. The museum inactive files identify three, including the rocket launcher. An old Journal of Military Ordnance article ("Aberdeen's German Vehicle Motorpool," JMO July 1999) also identified the flamethrower variant as having been in the museum's inventory at some point, it could have been one of the two other 251s identified in the museum's files... Such as this one...

The second one appears to be the Sd.Kfz. 232 armored car, which was given to the German test organization BWB in 1983 (possibly as a "loan").

The other vehicle - the one with the wheel on its side? - I think I've seen it before, just cant place it just yet...
