about the Overloon FT-17, I do not have an plate however there is an painted number on the side of the tracks

Number: 788 18
The difference is only 53 numbers, makes you wonder

Michel,

you probably didn't look at the good place, because the manufacturer's plate is still present on the other side of the FT at Overloon.
Here you can see the plate behind the red sign :

Thanks for the info. I agree the 18 must be the production year.
Looks like the kind of information that could be worth additing to the PDF.

Still have the plate :

FT at Bovington
FT at El Goloso
FT at Parola

if someone could find pictures of the plates from these tanks..

Here is the plate from the FT-17:

One of the three Renault FT owned by the Saumur Tank Museum has a plate with the following number : 6024.18

18 must be the year of production.

Thanks Michel. I wonder how many other FT-17 have the plate. Maybe Pierre-Olivier could help, I guess is the one who have seen more FT-17s among us Smile

I have a question about the FT-17. There is a cast plate on the left side tracks, with the Renault brand on it. The one on Bucharest's tank show also what looks like a serial: 841-18. Is that the case on other FT-17s as well?

I know for sure the one in Thun was missing the plate, and there was no data available on the tank. The plate is missing also on the tanks in Bruxelles, Paris Musée de l’armée and Saumur's tank on static display.

The MLI-84 is sitting in front of the building, visible from the street (together with a bunch of guns):

Is this just a license build BMP-1 or it has some peculiar/specific features?

Well then, we know where the herb garden is. Do you suppose they serve fresh salads at the snack bar?

The zucchinis and tomatoes I have seen weren't ready yet. I guess we should check later on in the summer Laughing
