Freikorps vehicles
Permalink Closed


Hello all,

I'm wondering if anyone here can help me with more details on the armored vehicles used by the Kommando der Kampfwagenabteilungen (Kokampf) or the other Freikorps units in the years following the First World War.

For Kokampf I have the below at the moment:
3 x British MK IV (two were nicknamed Hanni and Fee)
British Whippet
A7V (heavily modified and nicknamed Heidi)
Ehrhardt E-V4 armored cars
Daimler DZVR armored cars
Austin armored cars
Lancia armored cars
Fiat armored cars

Thanks.



btw. If you have any other additional information or corrections for the material on the Freikorps pages I'm also very interested, thanks.

Heidi wasn't a true A7V (and she was twins!). Two uberlandwagen chasis (same as A7V chassis) had new boilerplate bodies built on them

Hello Marcus
I can provide you with a list of Armored Vehicles used by the Friekorps, But I can not provide which units they were used, if this would help you in your research, please contact me off the forum. I can also supply you with quite a few photos for reference as well.
All the Best
Tim R

Hi Marcus,

if you still searching for some pictures, I can give you some. I have searched the libary of my universtiy and found some interesting pics.

I have used the facts from axis history and searched for pictures of vehicles and found out, that there was a Garford-Putilov also in use by the Freikorps.

If you need still information...

Regards
