Hi
Here are some pictures of them on parade in France. Cheers Phil |
Apparently there was a system on switches and lights for communication between crew during operation with the domes down. Interesting machine, for certain.

Great info on wikipedia on this thing - I love the domes! |
Thanks Matt, I knew there had to be some sort of tie up between them and the Vickers tankettes, they just looked too similar.

Here is one with trailer which we saw in Saumur in France in 2009.
The museum was like many others. NO PHOTO'S ALLOWED. I think I took about 130. Regards Rick. |
