That would have been something to watch. The tank looks to be in excellent shape.

Interesting that it has German markings on it...

If it was a Type 95 Ha-go that was pulled out, you might have had a Japanese soldier in it holding his breath thinking that the war was still going on.

The one pic looks like the aftermath of R2's swim in the dagobah swamp.

R-2 had a 76mm gun? I thought all he had was the little Jawa zapper thingy.

Leave it to the Germans to 'Unpimp the T-34' by putting their symbols on it..
