Tanks and armor quiz (medium level)

Not to hijack this quiz but, since I am being attacked, by a far superior force(in numbers) they know my situation, and I dont know their’s. if there is sufficient space between us yet, it is appropriate to leave the scene, and maneuver to take away their advantage. Then, it may be possible to attack them,from a good position, and attrit their numbers a couple at a time, till they disengage, or I can call for assistance (if there is any available.) The scenario didnt hint of any other tanks with me.

Wich tank was named after a deceased party officer in the USSR ?

I think that aforesaid vehicle is so called Heavy land-cruiser Tank - SMK, named after [b]Sergei Mironovich Kirov (Серге́й Миро́нович Ки́ров)]/b], Soviet leader who played a prominent role in the 1918–20 civil war. A member of the Communist party Politburo from 1930, he was secretary of the party at Leningrad when he was assassinated, probably by Stalin’s order. However, Stalin used Kirov’s murder to institute the internal “party purge” and the treason trials of the late 1930s.

Indeed excellent story about this extraordinary vehicle is located here:

Hehe, very good it was the SMK indeed.

Next, which type of antiarmor weapon is this ?

It looks to me like the good old Mauser T-Gewehr M 1918.

BTW: Are those personalities, presented on that old photo, members of the Guardia Civil?

Indeed, that ridiculous hat is like noything else in the world. :smiley:
Those are Mauser T-Gewehrs captured by the Guardia Civil (spanish civilian police) in 1934.

Your point number 4 if I am not wrong.

The photo is bad from the source too.
