Auto & Technik Museum Sinsheim
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.

Hello Jim,
I'am very interested in the serial and registrationnumbers of the Leopard 1 variants in the museum. On the prototype the serial can be a letter followed by digits. The productionvehicles it is 4 or 5 digits.

And of course the T-34s and other T-xx tanks. They have a T-54/55, what is it, ''54'' or 55''.

Let me know if you need info were to find it.

Regards,
Lesley

Should be no problem as my iPhone app for reporting military monuments is about ready for deployment and I have included a how-to-find-the serial-number with virtually every equipment type I can lay my hands on.

The only problem at the moment is integrating the generated message with an image taken by the iphone, the google map coordinates etc into a single message...

well, I've heard that the Sinsheim museum was required to conform itself in the German law :
the armour of the AFVs have to be cut down, so that policemen can fire on the driver if he makes something dangerous with the vehicle.
I would like to know if the museum did cut down its historical pieces, like the Panther or Marder III...

Another urban myth! That law apparently exists but relates to privately owned vehicles... but its incredibly hard to get permission to own a private AFV in Germany.

Latest images taken by one of my contributors on the 31st October show them still intact.
