Hello,

I don't intend to list the T-34-85 tanks for now, because they are too numerous.

Maybe you should to do list with T-34-85 only from war production?

I don't know how to recognize the war-time production T-34/85s. IS there a way to easily recognize them?

Pierre-Olivier

Yes this is not simple but mayby this web could help www.clubhyper.com/refe...5bg_2.html

BTW List with war T-34/85 preserved in Poland I can prepared

New section : British WW2 tanks

I'll have a look for this one.

Matilda register published at :

http://the.shadock.free.fr/Surviving_Matildas.pdf

There may be some mistakes in this register because I can't make the difference between a Matilda II, III or IV ..

P-O

OK, I'will change the others. For the one in Bergen, I found a photo were you can see the tank in the background. Btw the Sherman is also not on this spot anymore. Were they are gone, I don't know.
Thanks!

New file :

Tankettes, light and medium tanks : Carden-Lloyd Mk IV to Mk VI b tankettes, Vickers-Carden-Lloyd Model 1933, 1934, 1936 and 1937, Light Tank Mk IIA and Mk VI, Light Tank Mk VII Tetrarch, Vickers 6-Ton Tank, Vickers Medium Tank Mk I and Mk II

P-O, the Vickers-Carden-Lloyd Model 1937 at the top of page 6 is at Kubinka, not Bovington.

The APG Mk VI is supposedly a Mk VIB.

The APG Medium Mk II is supposedly a Mk IIA.

You can check the USA AFV register for background on the APG examples...

Neil

Thanks for the corrections.

Well, it seems that I''m using to much the CTRL+V command

One more new file published yesterday :

Sherman-based "Funnies" : Sherman M4A4 Crab, Sherman Duplex Drive, Sherman BARV

P-O

P-O,
An addition for your British Light & Medium Tanks file - discovered while researching the Bovington website for my new UK AFV Register:

www.tankmuseum.co.uk/c..._0103.html

Neil

Thanks Neil, I hope that I will be able to help you for the UK register. A big challenge as there are several private owners there !!
