Dresden Museum
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

First turret ... tough one. My best guess is a Command turret of a Panzerspähwagen. The 6 rad SdKfz 231 almost fits the bill. _________________ Frustra Nate Vive Devincere

That one doesn't looks like a BA-10 turret to me. Do you have additional pictures of BA-10s with such turret? Any front view of a BA-10's turret that matches the one in Dresden? I haven't seen one... I am still very skeptical. Massimo
