RE: What is your favorite WWII tank?
MORVWILSON,
Yes the FT-17 was used in WWII in many forms and by many countries. Some how it stayed on to fight with the Germans through 1944. A German FT-17 was even credited with immobilizing a Churchill tank on the beaches of Diep. The FT was designed as an infantry support weapon, and in that purpose it was well designed. This shows in its longgevity as a combat weapon. However it's still a WWI tank.

That's a hard guess on which army. So many shermans were shipped everywhere!
My guess would be either West German or Israeli going by the helmet on the man at the front of the front tank.
No and no.

Hungarian Turan prototype (3 perhaps). The angling of the hull and suspension are dead giveaways [8D]
*EDIT*
Not a Turan. It´s the TAS prototype vehicle. Still hungarian though.
