valnwt 11 Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) Hello Trying to figure out what the name of this tank is, its located in Sweden. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/542/krstr1.jpg/ Reason The old man has his birthday soon and I, with my brother, am planning to let him drive this one as a gift, but I also thought it would be fun to give him a "BIS" (kind of) challenge to solve what the gift is. Thus I need some info about it. Thanks Dan Edited June 1, 2012 by DanielV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beagle 684 Posted June 1, 2012 Looks like a soviet made self propelled howitzer, the 2S1 Gvodzika http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2S1_Gvodzika Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cozza 24 Posted June 2, 2012 Looks like the body of an MTLB MTLB Wikipedia The gun and Turrent, well to me that doesn't look real. There's no sights. Looks likes it just pieces of scrap they put together to make it look like a gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfire257 3 Posted June 2, 2012 Yeah I agree with Cozza. I'm pretty sure that's an MTLB body - perhaps made to look like a 2S1? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
da12thMonkey 1943 Posted June 2, 2012 Judging by the brackets on the front of the hull for mounting a ground anchor, and the raised tail-light boxes on the rear, it's a Bgbv 4012 (Swedish version of the MTP-LB recovery vehicle) but fitted with a mock turret to look more tank-like.
