Just wanted to ask a couple of dumb questions:
Was the CCKW 553 armed with a captured gun and is there any images of when it still had the browning?
How did Yugoslavia obtain the m38/50 mount for it’s pionir trucks? I know these were naval mounts but were these obtained pre or post war?
Was the T-55a with the SO-76 turret made with captured parts?
Was the German weaponry used on Stuart’s and the S.35 that was later modified with the 6 pounder captured during active combat or were they abandoned/surrendered?

  1. Unsure
  2. Captured during the War
  3. Define captured parts (captured from the JNA/ Obtained from defecting JNA)
  4. Captured and then taken away to be modified in workshops before heading back to the frontline where it then saw active conflict. There are many photos especially during the Race to Trst in 1945 of these being utilised by the JA

Thanks for the response!

My 3rd question was ment when the tank itself was constructed, did it use parts captured from other factions or were all the parts obtained via inheritence/defection.

So any progress on updating the post and/or when can we expect some news regarding that?

I thought only one Sd.Kfz.250 PaK 38 got captured but there were 5 of them
