    Correct!
    Highest scoring Dolphine pilot. Gillet scored 20 victories by the end of the war.

    Hmm, no taker for question no. 9.
    It's Austro-Hungarian Romfell, one of the only two armored car designs of the Monarchy (the other is the Junovics).

    hmmm.. To me that look like a Spanish Conquistador's helmet of circa 1500. The style looks right for it.

    Yes it does doesn't it but it's bronze. Trust me on this, it's Etruscan and can be found in the big museaum in Vienna.

    Ouch - tricky one.

    My guess, as with the first one is that it is Soviet. Looks like a Self-Propelled Gun rather than a conventional tank to me, one of the &#39;SU&#39; series, probably a later one. I&#39;m not familiar enough with the specifics to name the number. From playing Steel Panthers ( ) about 7 or 8 years ago, I vaguely remember them numbered in the 150&#39;s. As such my guess is going to be:

    Soviet SU 15&#39;something&#39;

    No, not a SU.

    My guess would be that it&#39;s one of the German Stugs.

    It is an early German tank I believe, I can&#39;t tell which one though. It has a low profile, something which the Allied tanks never had. It also was early, notice the riveted armor. But it also has the little red and white cross on it. This one is a stumper......
