Are the tanks found in the A&A set 1939-1945, green box, 15mm or not? How well do they mix with FoW? Thank you.

Not well they are not in any consistent scale.

The second edition sets (anything with a year range in the name) are all 1/100 or very close. The A&A Tiger I is the same size as Peter Pig's wrecked Tiger I, and the A&A tanks I have BF equivalents for tend to differ mostly by the vertical exaggeration of the BF tanks (which they admit to, by the way) and by the smoothing of some details (an artifact of truly mass production vs miniatures "mass" production). There are a couple of the early British Armored Cars that are truly the ugliest things I've seen in scale, and one that has very VERY large wheels, but for the most part they look just fine.

Take a look. It gives a good comparison for the new Cromwells from the 1939 set.
