| Subject: | Re: Czech 35(t) Hungary had 2 |  |

According to the Schiffer book "Czech AFVs 1918-1948", Hungary captured 2 from the Czechoslavaks in March 39 and after having Skoda repaired them used them for training.
According to the Czech language table of vehicle assignments in the MBI book 'Skoda LT vz.35', also by Kliment and Francev, the same two (and only 2) chassis numbers were used by "Madarsko iH-407" which I guess is a reference to Hungary as all other entries correspond to Germany, Slovakia and Rummania.
The Hungarian assembled Turan I was a licenced version of a Skoda design loosely based on the 35(t) but had a 47mm gun, larger turret ring and was larger.
Cheers
