really sucks your life ends under a T26. It's just like I tell my girlfriend that if I ever get driven over by a car, PLEASE let it not be a fiat or a french car. That would just ruin my day - last thing you see is the front of some shitty crap car.

No. Maybach for me. Or Jaguar.

Present day I would be honoured to be run over by a T-26. Theres not many left, maybe not even a running one.

There are about 45 T-26 tanks of various models preserved in different museums and military schools (mainly Russian, Spanish and Finnish)

And there is atleast two T-26's in running condition in Finland alone. Don't know how many there are in Russia or Spain.

I think that would roughly make up like 10/15 that might be in running condition, and I put my bets on 10 or lower.

Very exclusive to be ran over by  ;D

shitloads of boom-stuff hidden in it?
One crossed wire, one pinch of potassium chloride
ONE meddling bomb defusing german! AND KABLEWI!!!

After the St Nazaire raid, the germans where like=ooh nice trophy ship from battle we won
What they did not knew, was that Campbeltown carried 4.5 tonnes of explosives. At noon the charges went of, demolishing the Normandie dry dock. Preventing large ships like Tirpitz to use this drydock

250 german soldiers where killed by the explosion

^T.13 armed with 47mm gun of belgian design

We only had 12 T 13's but the 7 of them wich saw combat destoyed 45 german tanks

We Belgians had very modern anti-tank artillery underway. Our 47mm AT gun was better then the french 47mm and even the 50mm KWK of germany

I've never understood why the Germans weren't more suspicious of this. Did they literally think the Brits would just leave an entire destroyer behind on purpose?
