This Kubelwagen belongs to a private collector, usually there is a Schwimmwagen in this slot

Tgb M 42 M is the Swedish name. These were used as tractors for the 10.5 cm leFH 18 (Haub m/39)

I'd be very glad to know if the M4A2 which is in storage still has its manufacturer's plate inside the driver's compartment, and if the answer is "yes", to get a picture of it.

P-O

Note for Rafal: Stridsvagn Strv 103C (202364) is entered twice inside the PDF

Some notes for the PDF registers:

1) We better be consistent on the Museum's name, we are using both: "Arsenalen Tank Museum, Strängnäs (Sweden)" and "Swedish Vehicles Military Museum, Strangnas (Sweden)". We better pick one name/description and stick with it. I prefer the first name, since "Arsenalen" is kind of a brand Smile

2) Seems to be Ikv 91 (204607) belongs to Armeemuseum Stockholm. I should be able to confirm it very soon

3) Ikv 91 (????). The second tank listed on the Ikv 91 PDF. The picture wasn't taken at Arsenalen

4) Clearly Arsenalen own more Ikv 91s than just the two I saw on display. We should add them to a list of AFVs we expect to be on storage. Stefan may be able to review the list and provide additional info

Thanks Stefan. I had a great time in Arsenalen.
Again, I think it would be better to compile all questions here, then we will send them to you.

Massimo, as always great pictures. It was really nice meeting you and it was too bad that we did not have the possibility to show you the storage. But on the other hand, if we had brought you to the storage I think your wife would have reported you missing :-). There is a lot to see and not much space so it is definitely not the perfect place for photos .

The Volvo Halftrack was on display until 1 1/2 year ago, when it was moved to another museum in south Sweden - the museum Miliseum that opened a year ago. It was replaced by the M 16 Halftrack (on loan from a private collection).

We have a plan to change parts of the exhibition every year, last year we had a temporary exhibition with different variants of the Volvo Laplander. This year it is amphibious vehicles and next year it will be something different.
Arsenalen is not only a museum it is also the Army Museum National storage for MV so there can be vehicles coming and going.

If you have any questions I will try my best to answer, but sometimes the days are not long enough so it can take some time and I might need a reminder.

I saw no Volvo halftrack on display, but I only saw the public display, I wasn't able to visit the storage area.

I suggest we wait until I'll post everything I saw (I have pictures of each and every vehicle on display), than we check our notes/PDFs and try to assemble a list of what we assume is on storage and send it to Mr Karlsson to double-check.

I never noticed it before on Saumur and Full pictures.

Massimo is the Volvo halftrack still in Arsenalen ?
I heard something about a move to another museum

I like the idea that the information pannels are stick on a piece of track !

that's the same in Saumur..

I believe Saumur was the first using this solution. It's quite trendy nowadays. It's the same in Full too.
