"1942 Marmon-Herrington ID Plate Chinese Truck" - Chinese, anyone?!?

Hanno, I still use Jane's as mentioned above.

Here we go:

KNIL ordered 234 light tanks CTLS, of which:

-(estimate) 24 delivered to Java;

-149 delivered to Australia;

-39 delivered to Dutch West Indies;

makes 212 out of 234 accounted for. No room for 82 CTLS shipped to China. There must have been a second order.

Jane's states the US were left with 240 CTLS which is impossible if there was just the KNIL order.

Note rejection of the Chines order took place in March 1942 allready. Most KNIL tanks were already at sea. CTMS and MTLS order was still in production.

Greetings,
Nuyt
