The Pz Kw 35 (t)

Post by tigre »

Hello to all :D; a little account................

Panzerkampfwagen 35 (t) in the Panzerwaffe.

The 6. Pz (PR 11) was the only unit within the Panzerwaffe equipped with the Czech tanks Skoda LT 35 (Light Tank mod 1935) designated as Pz Kw 35 (t) with a weight of 10 ton, a crew of 4 men and armed with a gun of 37 mm L/42 plus 2 machine guns of 7.92 mm. It was fitted with the FuG 5 (10-watt transmitter/receiver) and the FuG 2 (receiver) radio equipment. The Germans also added a fourth crew member to act as a loader (as it was requested by the Divisional Commander), giving space in the turret but increasing the rate of fire of the Pz Kw 35 (t) which was comparable to the German PzKpfw III and was an important addition to the Armored Branch.

This tank was in use as MBT still in the early stages of Barbarossa; the regiment had 103 Pz Kw 35 (t) at the beginning of the campaign and none was in service by Nov 30, 1941. Here goes some pictures of this type of tank testing a ramp mounted on the same kind of armored vehicle.

Source: in the pictures.

Any other info about whether this type of ramp was in use in action and where? Cheers. Raúl M 8).

Raul, this photograph with the Deaths Head on the turret sides and Waffen-SS men beside the tanks suggests that the vehicles belong t the Aufklärungs Abteilung of the Totenkopf Division which had 5 of the 35(t) and was the only German Division other than 6 PD to use the tank.

Thanks for that tip Alan :up:. Do you have on hand more info on it (i.e. when the SS T AA got them)? Cheers. Raúl M 8).
