Crewman,

The British wheel system I described was for the totally different Mk II platform designed by the engineers at Nuffield Mechanisations to be much simpler than the original swedish design. It can be seen in many of Stellan's photos and can be easily identified by the baloon tyres and the tubular outriggers.

One of the guns shown in your latest set of photos is actually a Russian copy of the Bofors. See Stellan's colour photo at the top of the previous page.

Sorry to have confused you about the wheels/brakes...
