    The T-37 was basically a copy of the French AMR's anyway and with messrs Carden and Loyd in the mix, what you are saying is, it could have been produced by almost anyone in the 1930's:)
    But your suspicion was correct.. it is Russian.

    I have it as a Schwerer Zugkraftwagen 18t, but there were different versions.

    I know it's not a tank, but it was used to recover tanks..........;)

    I will take a guess that it is the British Vickers light tank.

    The suspension and gun mantlet appears that of an American M2 But the hull is slightly off...

    AKA the Dutch 3-man tank, built in 42 for Dutch East Indies, most of which ended up South of the border.

    I'd still like to have one in the garage. I'd call it an urban pacification vehicle, and name it the ...

    M4A1E5 tank. You can tell by the spaced VVSS suspension (give away is the grousers on both sides of the track). These were reworked early model M4A1s that were brought up to late war standards.
