Conqueror VRN
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.

I have VRN 41BA22 as being in the Duxford Imperial War Museum and also at Castlemartin (training area gate guard). Which one is the real 41BA22 and what is then the VRN of the other?

Here's what I have on Conquerors online (click on the photo of each for more information):

The Kubinka one is, of course, an ex-Duxford one. My notes for it mention 41 BA 22 being in storage at Duxford:

Kubinka Conqueror

That will date from some time ago, so it might make sense if 41 BA 22 transferred from Duxford to Castlemartin.

I have just looked up 41 BA 22 in Rob Griffin's excellent Conqueror (which has an appendix covering the fate of all examples by registration) and it states "Castlemartin replacement gateguard". _________________ Trevor Dr Trevor Larkum Preserved Tanks: PreservedTanks.com Armour Archive: ArmourArchive.co.uk EVs
