AFV ID Help Needed
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.

LVT(A)-4, the other one looks like a step in the AMX 30 AUFI-Programme with the 155mm, but I'm not sure, French tanks are not my forte. Cheers, Jens O.

The LVTA4 in Saumur might have been sold since the video was taken.. I say that because there is a LVTA4 in a Collection near Strasbourg (listed in the ASPHM collection in La Wantzenau, Bas-Rhin), and it was recently bought (max 2 years ago..), here are some photos :

and a link :

we should have a confirmation if the Saumur Museum still owns this LVTA4..
That's why I knew about it but didn't included it in the France Register
