I'm looking for a picture or diagram of the inside detail of a T-50, showing the fastening handles etc....

Or any Soviet light tank of the period (as there only seem to be a couple of t-50s left)

thanks

I wouldn't mind having this info either... I have the light tanks book by Mikhail Baryatinskiy and it has a pic of a museum T-50 with the hatch open... but the picture is of the OUTSIDE of the hatch... DOH!

Yes it's a right pain isn't it!

The web has come up with a couple of decent sets of pics or the basic and uparmoured (finnish captured) variants

there is also a great 'knocked out' shot on the link below

with the T-50 riddled with small arms fire (that armour was a touch thin!)

but sadly nothing showing the inside of the hatch (or the interior!)
