Matt W Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) Out walking on the former firing range near us this morning. As we passed the remains of one of the hard targets I said to my daughter that we would never know what kind of tank it had been without finding some kind of ID plate. So of course the first thing I picked was the fragment of an ID plate! From what I can make out the lettering is - 8.AT. III /41 I know it's a long shot but can anyone identify what this means? Thanks Edited June 3, 2022 by Matt W Didn't complete post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Prof Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) Hi @Matt W Since you've had no replies so far, here's my guess: I think it's a data plate from a British Ordnance QF 6 Pounder Airborne, Anti-Tank Gun Mk.IV on Carriage Mk.III, built 1941. Perhaps ask the same question in the Artillery & Anti-Tank Weapons section to get more views, and see if I'm anywhere near the correct answer.
