VHÚ obtained a LVT4 from the Normandy Tank Museum auction sales and is already in Lesany.

Badly rebuilt shell that needs a lot of work to get it looking more like an original.

I've found some recent pics of the LT vz. 38 from Lesany which has been in reconstruction in the last two years. It got a new camouflage, the bigger road wheels (from Hetzer?) are gone and frame antenna has been added to the side of the hull. Now, it should look as the first serial LT vz. 38's from the original order by the Czechoslovakian Army.

Some new footage of the newly reconstructed LT vz. 38. During the reconstruction, it has been discovered, that the tank is one of the first 10 produced tanks of this type. Also the tank had been damaged on the eastern front, as the turret was shot through by some Soviet anti-tank weapon.

Dear Sirs,
a few days ago arrived from Switzerland to the museum Lešany Panzerwagen 39. In his arsenal are two 7,5mm Panzerwagen Maschinengewehr 1938. I am very interested in learning more about these MG. I would like to become acquainted with technical specifications, photographs and drawings. Thank you in advance for your answers.

P. S.
I apologize for using electronic translator.

This tank used to be a gate guardian in Thun for many years. I am not surprised it still need plenty of work before it runs again.

VHÚ just posted article about the LTH on their webiste including some pics. And you guys were right, it comes indeed from museum in Burgdorf and its registration numbers is M-78587. Its gonna be on display in Lesany since 1st July, so I guess I'll make a trip there already before the Tank Day. Also from the pics its quite obvious that the tank has been renovated only on his exterior. The interior still needs a lot of work to be done, before it hits the road on its own Smile

Patrik Krista told me it comes from Bure. He got the info from someone at the Czech museum. But you're right, it looks like the one in Burgdorf.

From the painting it looks like this one from Burgdorf:

But maybe the two tanks still outdoor in Bure were recovered and moved to Burgdorf too?
Hopefully Chris will join the discussion and bring some info. In any case, we will know more pretty soon.

Not yet. I wonder if they will move it to the Army Museum Žižkov in Prague, as they did with LTP for about year. If not, pretty sure its gonna be shown at the Tank Day in August. I'll be there, thats for sure Smile

That's great news!

Do we know its registration number?

So, there was a rumour for some time and today it has been confirmed. VHÚ got LTH tank as a gift from the Swiss MoD an is in Lesany since today. The Director of the VHÚ also expressed desire to get one of the TNH tanks from Iran, since relations with this country are improving recently. Negotiations about it have not begun yet, though.

As for the LTH tank, so far its without engine, but VHÚ folks wants to get one and make the tank a runner. According to the article, the Swiss MoD already renovated the tank thus is in excellent condition.
