Hi Guys,
About a week ago I was in the Czech republic for a scale modeling show and while we were there we also visited two military museums.
In the Kraliky museum we found the chassis of a Cromwell between all the post-war russian and czech vehicles. Sadly we were not able to have a good look at the vehicle, because it was off limits to public. I did manage to take some "illegal" pics.
The Cromwell seems to have been converted at some stage. Has anyone got an idea what this Cromwell was used for? It has a plate welded over the turret ring with a hole in the middle. One other strange feature is the cut-out in the rear panel, with some tube or exhaust sticking out. Any ideas? AA-tank? mobile searchlight?
regards,
Alex van de Wetering
p.s. maybe the number on the hull front gives something away?
