There is something funny about that “Firefly’. It still has the hull MG. This was normally removed and covered over by an armoured plate in the Firefly to increase the ammo storage. Also it has the early style of gun mantle which was not used on the Firefly. Last, it dose not have the armoured box at the back of the turret to house the radio.
Was this a conversion made by TRR in the field or is it a post-war mock up for the display? This looks like a very early version of the Sherman V but they stuck on the wrong type of gun. It should have a 75mm gun. Last edited by John McGillivray; 05-07-04 at 05:07. |
