Historical information and application

The Praga AH-IV-R/R1 is a Czechoslovak light reconnaissance tank designed in the second half of the 1930s by the ČKD Praga plant. This tank model was widely exported—in the R/R1 version it was supplied to Romania in a quantity of 35 units before World War II and was used by the Romanian army during the Eastern campaign against the USSR alongside Nazi Germany, from 1941 until the end of the war. These tanks took part, among others, in fighting on the Eastern Front during World War II, where they served mainly for reconnaissance, infantry support, and anti-partisan duties. Their small silhouette, good mobility, and ease of operation were valued by Romanian soldiers.
