[b:0c1c5fae0d]Artillerie Panzerbeobachtungswagen auf 38H(f)
(artillery observation)[/b:0c1c5fae0d]

The figure below plastic kit of the chinese firm Trumpeter (No. 00355, M1:35) shows the specific redevelopment kořistěného tank Hotchkiss H-39 on samohybnou air, or artillery observation post.

Colleague "Bitaxe" I pointed out that I'm not really distanced himself from the plausibility of the here present in the kit. I do so by this additional pasting the text with the statement: "I don't Know any photo or drawings, which would come close to the below depicted model of the chinese firm Trumpeter".

Notes:
The germans the beginning of the DSV have introduced a unified system of labelling of captured weapons. Compared to place of origin, however, there were differences in marking, for example, the French light tank Hotchkiss H 39, the Wehrmacht distinguished according to the year of delivery to the French army: the Panzerkampfwagen 38 H 735 (f) or Panzerkampfwagen 39 H 735 (f). Therefore, you may use the kit plastic model designation Pz. Beob. Wg. 38H (f).

first, the author mentioned the review at the very beginning he writes that on the vozdle know almost nothing and that he had found the only references in the above works (the latest being it placed him just out of earshot from Christophe Jacquemont) itself states that this is becoming the existence of the vehicle somewhat unclear (in the original : so it may be obscure) and this piece ends with the words, but it is an interesting model. (it looks more like a model of interest than to historical fidelity) . I admit that arguing the drawing of the box model on which reality we are talking, I find it somewhat strange. In general, drawing camouflage unsubstantiated photos is about anything, I myself am of the drawings to the boxes and similar elevations attended and their historical allegiance to know their.
It that are next to each other given the same two names I consider to be a misprint (properly probably has to be one of the Panzerkampfwagen 39 (H)
Unfortunately, neither one of these books is not in my library so I have to trust the author that the references in them really are, unfortunately from the text it seems that it's really a reference and not a description or even a photo. But need someone next to one of the books has and will bring in things clear. Yet can I say about the credibility of the chinese model of somewhat doubtful..

I managed to find in a book from the Spielberg Beute-Kraftfahrzeuge und -Panzer der deutschen Wehrmacht on the vehicle noting they were made 24pcs and were included in the battery of howitzers on the bogies Hotchkis. Photo is attached, according to the picture on the box seems that it is higher, but the need just didn't pass the painter of perspective..

The captured vehicle was converted to an engineer vehicle. The source of the video from which this photo is made states that the footage is from the English 3rd Infantry Division (?), Resp. its REME (Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers) engineering unit.
