Isn't the APC in the last photo a locally produced design, designated M-60?

It looks like your "common" military truck with armor added to it.

Croats during the last were used alot of these since Serbs got most of the former JNA hardware.Yugoslavs are very industrail and creative they make do with what is around very well.I remember my dad and uncles always fixing or improving things.This was evident in the 99 bombing Serbs used rather low tech camouflage to fool NATO.Is this for sure Serbian?

IIRC, they were purchased in the 90s by a businessman from Cyprus and then shipped to Yugoslavia.

Armor on the humvees was made by an Israeli company called MDT. The other armored truck is a Reo M35.

Yep,we used everything we could. Most of these vehicles were used during the summer and fall of '91 until we got/bought/captured some proper APCs and IFVs.

Yup. I have a somewhere of a burnt out m-60. I took it in Croatia in 92. The pic, not the M-60, it wouldn't fit in my kit bag...

I'm not sure if it is a serb vehicle, but probably from former Yugoslavian countries.

The "POLICIJA" legend certainly locates it in the area. I'd guess it's based on a TAM-110 chassis.

Any pictures WWII vehicles such as the M-36 anti-tank tank.

M-36 is a tank destroyer, and there is no such thing as "anti-tank tank".

I know Japanese call it "駆逐戦車", but it's a misunderstanding.

In 1991 we had very little armour (and everything else) so we had to improvise. Most of these improvisations come from Croatia (some from Bosnia and Serbs fom Croatia).
