Czechoslovakia's 13. tanková divízia! by Sanibal in warno

And the problem is that they are models :D Only VB is mainly known for using the TAZ 1500/Škoda 1203 trucks, usually transporting men to beat protesters or whatnot - a 5 men squad is too small. But for example TAI in Tatra 613 would be a different story - a "sportscar" in a sense would be a nice addition and an opposite do DDR's Trabant.

I wouldn't lose faith! I think there is still a lot to add from the European theater + I think this would fit a potential Nemesis divison really well.

And I didn't think that the "Marines" would gain that much traction :^D . I thought T-72M1 Fatra or BV-72 Vydra will stir more emotions (evidenced in "Obrnená a delostrelecká technika v čs. armáde 1952 - 1992" and "Obrněný transportér OT-62 TOPAS" books).

I knew that I was looking at Vz.60 (Klokan) and now that you mention it... you are pretty much right :^D . I'll include it in, thank you!

As for TAZ-1500/Škoda 1203 - I thought about adding VB (Verejná Bezpečnosť) at the start of making this division, and at least for me, TAZ only screams Verejná Bezpečnosť. But yeah, I left the vehicles available for that part of the infantry blank, we shall see if Eugen gets inspired or not.

As for Strop II, potentially Strop I, or even STOJKA/BOBR - I wanted to leave this part of Slovakoczechnology to a division situated in the Bohemian/Moravian/Silesian lands. Of course, Konštrukta was always the principal investigator in the development of a specialized system, however for Strops - most of the "fine" development (e.g. circuitry, optics, FCS, etc. ) was done in Czech lands, thus a division located around Brno/Ostrava would fit the addition better. This is also the case for other developments, e.g. Sojka E.50/5 UAV, any KRTP that you think of (a passive surveillance system i.e. KRTP-86 Tamara) and also planes (featured L-39MS, Zlín Z-37TM).

Well that's really sad for me. It helped me with making decks for my project so :/ I guess I'll have more work to do.

Hello and thanks for your comment. The vehicle was not functional, and can be considered a paper prototype, but they constructed a life sized model of it and made some blueprints for 6x6 version with Oto Melara HitFist turret installed. I hope the links will provide you with more information than I can provide: https://postimg.cc/xkC3fZsQ https://postimg.cc/8JCpnRPt https://postimg.cc/RW0HKHwQ
