Keith_history_buff Posted 11 May , 2019 Share Posted 11 May , 2019 I came across this image today. Is this an example of the Überlandwagen based on the A7V chassis? I'd only heard of British supply tanks up to now. Every day is a school day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trajan Posted 11 May , 2019 Share Posted 11 May , 2019 Whatver it is I wouldn't mind having a go with it. Not quite so de-luxe though as this thing - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-1922992/Video-Russian-YouTubers-outfit-Bentley-tank-tracks-awesome-clip.html Gareth, your answer while precise, is a bit like a certain beer as it certainly does not satisfy - were these 'common' or what?

charlie2 Posted 11 May , 2019 Share Posted 11 May , 2019 1 hour ago, trajan said: were these 'common' or what? Julian, according pal „The Prussian“ who posted on the https://www.feldgrau-forum.com/ that there were 100 chassis made and were used as follows 22 for the A7V prototype 20 for the A7V 1 for the A7V-U 3 for the A7V Flakpanzer 2 for the signals version 1 as an Artillery tractor The remaining chassis were mainly used for the munitions/carrier version.
