Our tank designers certainly knew how to churn out mediocre crap (or worse) in the 30s and early 40s.

Lovely looking model though :)

For the time, it was a very fast tank…when it ran. The thought was much like the WWI battle cruiser. Its speed was its protection. Only about 15mm of armor on this beauty.

And yes. I agree. Great looking model.

Just what an Eastern front German army needs…. ;-)

You know, Dom, there were actually a few such vehicles there. Kinda interesting. At least I think so…

Yup! The Germans used some Beute A.13's in one of their flammpanzer units. I'm not sure if they were equipped with flamethrowers of just there for support for the flame tanks. Didn't last long. Probably ran out of spare parts!

They were used for the gun tank platoons of two companies, plus one or two in the HQ.
