"Based on captured French AMR 35 Tannks the German Wehrmacht rearmed some of this vehicles with an heavy 8cm Motar and a new designed open superstructure. Also they builded a forward observation vehicle with closed superstructure and a tank cupola on the same chassis, the Beobachtungspanzer AMR 35. 1pcs."

Those tracks look way too thick. |

But you're OK with the rivets then? But seriously, can anyone provide a source for the forward observation version existing? I've had no luck so far. |

There's a photo on page 221 of the Encyclopaedia of German Tanks of WW2 (Chamberlain and Doyle) of an AMR35 'with a cupola…and…small armoured cab' (plate 827). Looks a bit like the model. If the conversion was normally to mount an 8-cm mortar perhaps they had a few accompanying FOO type vehicles for the commander? Gary |
