"New'' Centurion, parked in the vicinity of the range tower at the artillery range in 't Harde is Centurion mk.5/2 registration KX-10-30, serial(?) 152/450. Tank has the original markings of 11th Tank battalion and tactical number A10.

KX-10-30 is the oldest (AFAIK) surviving Centurion in the Netherlands at the moment.

If it comes from the impact area I don't know, it had no damage from artillery. When I have time I will try to get more info.

Moved to the impact area of the Artillery Gunnery Camp at 't Harde as hard target.

I think they kept that in storage, the artillery I saw was Dutch 1850-1970 mainly. It is possible there is some in one of the rooms I didn't have time to visit, but I don't think so.
