Museum Kalemegdan, Belgrade (Serbia)
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.

I am playing with the idea of compiling a registry of surviving Skoda heavy guns/mortars. So far I know: - Two 30.5 cm, the 38 cm and 42 cm in Bucharest - 30.5 in Rovereto (Italy) - 30.5 cm in Belgrade - 38 cm in Vienna Massimo

What is the ID of the tank in photo 30 and 42? It looks like a T34 chassis, but the turret is new to me. Thanks for any info.

That T-34 was a Yugoslavian project that did not enter series production, if memory serves only about a half dozen were built.

To be more complete and exact about the tank appearing on pictures 30 and 42, but also on pics 31 and 37 :

* Teski Tenk Vozilo A (Heavy Tank Type A) - This was a 1949 Yugoslav tank based on the T34 design. A total of nine prototypes were built. They were designed and built at the height of the danger from Soviet invasion when Yugoslavia was building up its weapons industry. They were designed by reverse engineering of the Soviet T-34-85 medium tank without any documentation. They are recognizable by their angled front hull corners, modified hull machine gun mantlet, streamlined turret with cylindrical cupola, muzzle brake on the gun, and external fuel tanks that appear to be notched to fit the hull. An alternate version existed, armed with a gun and a mantlet from the M47 Patton. Two examples survive. One of the prototypes is on display at the military museum in the Kalemegdan fortress in Belgrade. The other surviving example is in Banja Luka barracks.
