As it's no longer possible to edit this list, I would like to add the SdKfz 7/1 to the A/A section.
Maybe with the Mods permission, it's time to re-new this one.

Re: German Equipment in N.Afrika 1941-2
Raul, I've never believed that this particular photograph was taken in Africa. However there was at least one SdKfz 247 in Africa with 5th Light/21 Panzer Division's Recce Bn.

Re: German Equipment in N.Afrika 1941-2
I agree with Alan re- the photo not being North Africa.
I have waited a long time for confirmation of the 2477's presence, so thank you Alan!
Kind Regards,
David.

Pak 36 (r) 7.62 cm auf Panzerjäger Slf Zugkraftwagen 5 t (Sd Kfz 6) in Salerno / Amalfi.
A picture of some half-track with the aforementioned anti-tank gun (Selbstfahrlafette) intended for the Afrika Korps and ready to be loaded onto a transport ship in the port of (probably) Salerno/Amalfi in Italy. AFAIK these vehicles were in use in the Panzerjäger Abteilung 605 right?

Re: German Equipment in N.Afrika 1941-2
That one was on the original list under PaK simply as "Diana". Your nomenclature is more precise!
Thanks. Dave.

Re: German Equipment in N.Afrika 1941-2
Hello Raul.
That one is present in the original list as 17cm L/49.
There were three batteries, each of 3x 17cm guns. 4/149, 902 & 4/HKA 772. The latter was re-named as 362 Btr.
They operated independently and didn't come together until the formation of I Abteilung. 2 Afrika Artillerie Regiment, which is I think the Abteilung to which you refer.
Kind Regards,
David.
