Comet in Russia?

Postby Stephen White » Thu May 06, 2010 11:58 am

I was looking at Richie's post on the Stug III found in Russia (Pz III thread) and saw the YouTube item below.

If I'm not mistaken, one of the hulks shown is a Comet. My limited knowledge of Russian suggests the items were found in the Leningrad area. So what is a Comet doing there? Is it a Comet? Could it be a Finnish tank from the post war batch that has got mixed up in this slide show? Or did the Russians have Comets at some stage. I've not heard about the latter at all. Or it simply isn't a Comet.

Hi Stephen

Well it is definitely a Comet. I tried Google translator on the page, and one of the comments says that not all photos were taken in the Leningrad area. Unfortunately it does not give any further info.
