    armoured opel blitz used end 43-44 hungary-pictures needed

    hello,
    at the end of 43-begin 44 the german wehrmacht used as everywhere opelblitz trucks
    but some in hungary or bulgary (probably used by luftwaffe units?? not shure of this) had armoured plate in front of their radiator and armoured doors, roof
    I am yet searching yet for pictures of this special one
    there are pictures from this taken i saw them a few months ago but cannot remember where i saw them.
    those opel blitz trucks that had that sort of armour had also flak installed in their cargo compartment
    thanks in advance
    phil

                    Looking at teh bunber and the front fenders the armoured truck is a Mercedes Benz and not an Opel... most possible a MB 4500.

                    The front window in the first pics looks as if it is covered with plywood...or replaced by a playwood bord with only small glass elements inserted. Maybe the work of a maintanace unit without proper spares...
