Love the way you folks try to seem like you know all these things when the posters haven't even bothered to change the names of the links to the pics.   :noid

   got it thanks i forgot to look at the 250 halftrack

If you're really interested try to get a copy of Chamberlin's and Doyles 'Encyclopedia or German Tanks". The amount of sub-vehicles and types fielded will blow your mind!

I dont know if its still published but, if you even have a passing interest try to get it.  :aok

First is an M8 HMC, which is a Stuart chassis carrying a 75mm howitzer.

Middle one you did OK with. -- but I would guess an IS-3.

12,8 cm Panzer Selbstfahrlafette V L/61 (Pz. Sfl. V)

Yep, JS-3. One of the meanest looking, most over-rated tanks in history. :D

Middle one is a T-55

Bottom one is a T-62

The top one is a prototype "big wheel" from an idea Winston Churchill had.
