G-13. The state of the register
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 think it may be the one shown in the Slovakian quarry, the braced piece of armour over the tow hitch (?) looks the same. Yes, looking at the photos on www.detektorweb.cz/ind...&vd=1, shows the 4-hole idler wheel on one side. And the 8-hole on the other.

Hi Folks! Is the serial number for a G13 stamped on the out side of the vehicle? Sgt, Scouts Out from Ft Bliss TX _________________ "You can never have too much reconnaissance." General G.S. Patton Jr.

I saw M-78126 in Kradolf, running. It was driven quite aggressively on the off-road area, and it got stuck, an M5 half-track came to its rescue Smile

The current owners got it in 2008, it wasn't in great shape, but it's now very well restored and in running order. I think Hilfikon isn't anymore the correct location, the new owners own a restaurant in Kradolf, but I am not sure if the tank is stored there or elsewhere.

Will post pictures soon.

Hello,

I've found more information today about a G-13 that has been seen at Tankfest in 2006 :

The restoration of this tank started in March 2011, in Southern England :
http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?23211-Jagdpanzer-38-T-%28Hetzer%29

From what I can see on the pictures, the G-13 is ex M-78083 (rermains of paint at the front and rear) :

This one has a more dramatic look, due to the wide-angle. I am pretty sure Pierre-Olivier will pick the one above Massimo

I may be out of line entering this conversation, but is the G-13 owned at one time by Terry Johns of Saint Louis MO present and accounted for here? I've haven't seen the thing since the 1980's, but he was quite active with the exhibit and reenactor scene at that time. _________________ Terry L. Stibal sensha @ earthlink.net

You are never out of line, if you can present new knowledge or information previously unknown. _________________ hvasnakkerduom.blogspo...wagen.html
