"New" Ordnance Museum Data Plates #3 Other Vehicles
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.

Unknown Bologna




This isn't from a manufacturer, it's a label from an army workshop. Usually they are added after a revision.

The M44 is the gun mount for the M3A3, but this data plate differs slightly from the data plate that I found in the 'Ft Benning Armor Museums' M3A3.

Don

Unknown BMW Badge




This is the stadard BMW factory badge.
Because it is part of the Ordnance museum, most likely was it fitted to a BMW motorcycle

could be, however the BMW motorcycles are more common

also, most german military cars don't have manufacturers badges

The common kubelwagen and schwimmwagen don't have manufacturer badges, only the badge VW is stamped into certain parts.
For example VW stamped into the fuel filling cap.
