This should be one modified by the germans, but the squared cupola is different than the one I saw in Brussels Museum. Do you know any other surviving vehicle with the same configuration?

Thats a Sicherungsfahrzeug UE(f) - Luftwaffe airfield security vehicle with seperate MG 34 & 13mm HMG casemates.

That looks to me like the versions manufactured for SS Polizei units?

Thanks for the feedback. That chennilette in Copenhagen is impressive.

Anyway, my question is still open, I would like to know if there are more with this configuration.

Massimo

Sorry cannot be much more help - there are no more extant with this configuration as far as I know...

They only exist in WW2 images now and I have been collecting german UE conversion images for a while for a project.

Massimo,

It seems that the Copenhague, Trieste and Brussels ones are unique survivors

You can also find a example with Wurfrahmen 40 in Dresden :


I don't know any other heavily-modified UE..

Thanks.

Pierre Olivier, you have Renault UE Chenillette register in the pipeline, right?

Rafal gave me some material, that's right.

I have pictures of both chenillettes in Brussels and the one in Full. Drop me a note if you need any.

How many vehicles are still around, more or less?
