Two strange German AFV's+translation needed
Permalink Closed


I found on this Ukrainian site interesting sketched on the LKII tanks, but at the bottom there is this picture of two vehicles appearing to habe LKII chassis but with other construction and armament: http://armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWI/kaizer/kaizer5.html



Maybe someone fluent in russian or ukrainian can translate the text regarding this picture.


Many thanks in Advance

Surely Krupp and Volmer given that Volmer designed the LK II

According to Schneider & Strasheim, the top drawing is of the LK II power limber, Vollmer type. Driver and m-gunner to sit at the front; crew of six in the rear.


Presumably the lower one is the Krupp version.
