Default Article on Aussie Marmon Herrington Tanks

G'day Motto, and everyone,

the armour historian at Puckapunyal, Major Paul Handel, has done research on these very interesting small tanks in Australia and wrote an article about them. It even has a number of photos. See link below:-

I have heard a number of times that there are NOS transmissions and final drives extant in Victoria, and the ones used in the replica Japanese tanks could have came from the same source.

Looking at the images, I would not like to have been going to battle in one. Something bigger, heavier and faster would be preferable.

Jared
