LT-38 (Family)

Description

The ČKD LT vz. 38, otherwise more familiarly known as the Panzerkampfwagen 38(t), hull-designation Sd.Kfz. 140 in Germany.

It was a Czech light tank developed from 1935 to 1938 to replace the ČKD LT vz. 35, but would be annexed the next year and used within the German arsenal without a single LT-38 having fought for the Czech.

The LT-38 / Sd.Kfz.140 would be a wide base hull for many variants within the German Wehrmacht (due annexation) and Swedish army (due co-development with Skoda).
