Thanks Denes for confirmation.
Dragos, do you have a registration number for a TACAM R2? |

Is there amy meaning to these numbers seen on Rumanian AFVs?
Generally speaking, I think it's unfortunate that there is/are no researcher(s) seriously focusing on Rumanian armour in W.W. 2 - similar to the several persons who already research Rumanian aviation with success, with the fruit of their respective research having been published. |

"U" comes from Uscat (Land) and was applied to all the vehicles of the land army. I have noticed that all numbers of AFVs of the 1st Romanian Division during 41-44 start with 039. This does not apply to R-1 tanks (011527, 011502 etc) |

As you can see in the photo I posted before, there are no visible markings on the front hull or on the sides of the turret. The base colour may be the olive green, the same used for R-2.
In the photo below (from summer 1944), on the turret side it is painted the tank number (411) and the "Mihai cross", both in white paint. ![]() About the panzer gray colour of the T-4 at the museum, it is dubious. Even if some T-4s would have retained the original German paint, it would most likely be sand yellow, not panzer gray.
