Beutepanzers and WWII weapons used post-war

[silian]

Yes, i know now, i was way confused because i did not know there was a shortbarreled one. I do now

Technically there isn't a long barreled version, the one armed with the 7.5cm KwK 42 L/70 (as used in the Panther) were called  Panzer IV/70(A/V). The Panzer IV/70(V) was issued to Panzer and Panzerjager units, while the Panzer IV/70(A) was issued to Panzer and StuG units, and likely Panzerjager units as well.

Here is one happy grayhound in current use
I believe this to be the Chillian army, not 100% sure tough.
This configuration could have been WW2, the parts where there in the period i think.

Quad .50 cal on a Greyhound. Nice combo!

Good for some alternate history person, and yes Siben, would have been possible in WW2 if they ever came up with it.

Panzer IV in the American Armor Foundation Museum in Danville, Virginia. This tank was sold to Syria after WW2, captured by Israel in the Six-Day War and sold to the museum.



M18 Hellcat in the same museum. This tank was sold to Yugoslavia after the war and saw combat in Bosnia, before being captured by NATO in 1995 and sold to the museum.

This sherman was used by the Croatian army during the Yugoslav wars (1990-1995)
The thing behind is an M36 also used by us

That's pretty awesome if this Sherman really was used as recently as 1995 ... any way to back it up?

It makes me so happy to see history treated so well, after it was in such danger of being lost.

Here is a T34/85 that was used there in vukovar, croatia, 1991




Also, this:

Various Pak Army Chaffee tanks captured after the Battle of Boyra on 21 November 1971.

This is the link to the museum's webpage.
The page is kinda on Croatian but I think google could help you out on that one

I'm tempted to take it, then restore it :/

As much as we are all tank buffs, old tanks are still just pieces of metal. In this case, this tank has become a part of public "art," which I think is really cool.
