2 Renault UE tankettes stored at Kapellen??
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.

Post subject: 2 Renault UE tankettes stored at Kapellen??

Hello,

Stefan De Meyer sent me an email today, and said that the Tank Museum in Brussels owns two more Renault UE tankettes that are stored at Kapellen. This would make 4 Renault UE for the Tank Museum (with the 2 displayed at Brussels).

One of these two was discovered in the 80s in a crane company (SAERENS), and the other one was found in the sand of a military exercise camp at Stockem (Arlon). The last one has Schürzen and fittings for Würfrahmen rockets.

Who could confirm this and provide some photos?

Pierre-Olivier
