Mgebrov-? 2 turret armored car
Permalink   


On the alexanderpalace.org site Alexander Palace Time Machine section there is a online book "Blood Stained Russia" where there is a Mgebrov-? 2 turret armored car in the hands of the City Milita or CM. this is probablyright after the Febuary/March Revolution. Perhaps somebody can have a shot at IDing it.

Do you mean this picture?
This is Renault Izhorski (Project Staff-Captain W.A. Mgebroff, built 11 units).
The picture shows the transfer of Belgian armored cars division.

Looks like a Mgebrov-Renault armoured car. The twin turret version was built in small quantities in 1916.

Regards,

Charlie
