Romanian trucks, use of Axis trucks in Romanian Military

In my oppinion we have a mount for two ZB light machine-guns in the first photo (with the guns installed right to the back of the cabin), and twin Hotchkiss 13mm MG's in the second.

Thanks for the reply.
I did not look very closely at the first photo- As you said it is certainly a different, lighter weapon.
I have been wondering if vehicles like these might be the "motorized AAMG's" shown on organization charts as part of most artillery regiments...

Hello,
I want to show to you some pictures, from a very large collection that, I think, would be a precious source for all.
The images in are not of military trucks, but as a fellow forumer stated here earlier, many of the civil trucks were requisitioned by the army.

If you use "Strukturansicht" at the top of the page you can go to the listing of images.

So, my question, if not off-topic, would be:
Can you help me identify some of this trucks?

And more on topic, from the same source, a series of images from București during WW2:

Please spent a little time on this site, I am sure that you will find interesting pictures.

Thanks for your attention,
Mihai

Is there any comprehensive statistics available on the the numbers of trucks by type in Romanian service? For example, how many Famos were purchased, how many Fords were obtained etc. I've seen very general numbers, for example that at the start of the war there were 3,000 motor vehicles used in the invasion of Russia, but no defined numbers.

Thanks

I liked this vehicle too, and managed to "squeeze" a bit of my camera arm in there for a shot of the workspace in the rear. What is just out of view to the extreme left in this shot is a drill press, one of the items for which that generator on the trailer came in handy.

Hello,

I would like to realise a kit of this truck, but I have no information about dimensions.
Could someone give me the more information about this Skoda 6ST6 Truck ?

Thanks
