Renault UE 1937 In Motion

Posted on January 4, 2015 by Silentstalker

Hello everyone,

it’s a widely known fact that tankettes were generally useless in battle (with a few exceptions, as artillery tractors for examaple), but they sure do look cute. Here’s a video of a restored Renault UE 1937, it’s in Belgium I think. Actually, to drive something like that could be a lot of fun, no?

In case you are wondering, here’s a video of the “insides” of the tankette. Notice how tiny everything actually is!

It looks very similar with a Romanian tankette made by Malaxa.
SS actually posted some pictures with it in his “Bucharest Museum Photos” article:

7th picture.

I guess the Romanians used the french design as inspiration.
