    If i may sidetrack..Israel unloaded quite a number of amx-13s (riddled with bullet holes) on Singapore right after the war. I will not be surprised if at least one of these two vehicles are actually still in service with us. Here's a link to another thread where you can see an upgraded incarnation of the tank

    Here's the product brochure of the SM1

    www.stengg.com/upload/177Fh8Uj09hDGRXgLLU.pdf

    And here's a video that features some rare footage of the tank (in service with SAF) in the sixties and seventies.

    Anyway the SM1s are gradually being phased out to make room for the Leopard 2A4s

    Enjoy

    I was just wondering if they could be Wespes since is a fact that were some WWII German material in hands of the Syrians like Panzer IV Ausf. G, StuG III...








    Cheers!
    you are right Syria was supplied by ... France (SSSHHHUT don't repeat this) with panzer-IV and sturmgeshutz (Czechoslovakia furnished spares also) but no WESPE survived the end of war exept in Hungary (they have been rapidly scrapped).

    To be complete it is a czech made t-34-85 model 1953.
    This tank is fitted with the mobile ring for a 12,7mm DSHKm AAMG, seldom seen.
