Kfz 13 perustui Adler Standard 6 henkilö autoon ja oli rakennettu tämän rungolle.
Vaikka Kfz 13 oli neliveto varusteinen, auton maastokelpoisuus oli hyvin huono.
Aseeton versio Kfz 14 oli viestintä ajoneuvo johon oli asennettu radio konekiväärin asemesta.
Kfz 13 otettiin käyttöön saksan hyökättyä Puolaan ja oli käytössä Ranskan taistelun aikana. Se poistettiin aktiivi käytöstä vuonna 1941 ja sitä käytettiin sen jälkeen vain koulutukseen.
----------------------------------
The Kfz 13 (also in German: Maschinengewehr-Kraftwagen) was the first armoured reconnaissance vehicle introduced by the Reichswehr after the First World War and, by 1935, 147 units of this lightly armoured vehicle had been delivered to the fleet. The Kfz 13 was based on a civilian car, the Adler Standard 6.
Although the Kfz 13 was equipped with all-wheel drive, the vehicle had poor cross-country capability.
The Kfz 13 was deployed in the Invasion of Poland and the Battle of France. It was retired from active service in 1941 and only used thereafter for training purposes.

VastaaPoistaGreat, Al.
VastaaPoista:) Thanks for your comment
Happy Easter.
Strange little car, looks like the one at the start of the movie "the keep"
VastaaPoistaHi, S-K
PoistaFor me, this film is a keep-unknown
Adler is, however, very old (maybe 1890 something) motorcycle brand.
(Adler = Aguila = Aigle = Eagle)
Also produced typewriters, cars and bikes, after WW 2
I think that it was an Austrian origin
In my youth, cars and tractors are no longer manufactured
Happy Easter.
The keep is a classic, you should try to track it down

Yeh I love that king of movie, pat Garret and Billy the kid, the wild bunch, Convoy, Sam Peckinpah, I have all his movies on DVD, he is a legend
PoistaYeh Обичам този цар на филм, Пат Гарет и Били Хлапето, The Wild Bunch, Конвой, Сам Пекинпа, имам всичките му филми на DVD, и те е легенда
PoistaPeckinpah is the number one, the second by Sergio Leone
Poista1984 Iron Cross length was 3.5 h, but the films contain scenes of violence was limited
(all films since 1993), it was reduced to almost one hour
But the film's suffered when content and tension also disappeared
Like these too, Red Sun, C'era una volta il West / Harmonica-avenger....
