Vehicle Description

An outstanding view range and gun elevation/depression angles distinguish this vehicle from all other Premium light tanks. However, its large dimensions and weak armor forces this vehicle to keep on the move and change flanks, as well as call for passive spotting, taking advantage of bushes and terrain irregularities.

Historical Reference

The vehicle was proposed as a further development of the Ru 251 and primarily intended for export, particularly to Mexico. This variant inherited the same armor and armament from its predecessor, but featured an elongated hull and an additional support roller. The vehicle existed only in blueprints.
