hi guys,
we are looking for help in order to recognize a tank destroyed at kursk...

could you help us ?
I put this request here because there are among you some model makers well skilled





We would like to make a legend for a book on battle of kursk....

thanks for your attention.

Ok, I'll take a stab at this beast and say that it is, or was, and British Valentine Mk X used by the Russians.

That's the best I can do. I'm surprised that noone else has replied to you yet. There's ALOT of cats on here that know that stuff.

Ok guys, am I right or wrong on the Valentine guess?

Hi,
Funny, the gun/ gun assembly doesnt look the same. Just a haphazard guess, without pulling out any reference books, but I'd go with a flamethrower modified Valentine or perhaps a command tank with a dummy gun. Is that a radio set atop the turret or some sort of machine gun setup for close combat?

Harry has a good eye for details -- perhaps he can identify this beast...

if no one on here can positively identify it, ask the same question on the allied forum of missing-lynx.com. The cats over there really know their armour.

I personally have no clue what it is..

thanks a lot...
indeed, it is well a Valentine.
We think a mk III valentine II, with transformations made by russians like said Lightning2000.
