Soviet Union. I did check many numbers with cyryllic "BA" in front and nothing. |

The turret is reminiscent of a Vickers-Crossley - I found a match for a Hungarian-pattern armoured car, listed as an "M29 Crossley", there's also a 6-wheel variant called A29M. |

Yes, it is the same 6-wheeld car on both pics. History on Hungarian website -> http://militiahungarorum.roncskutatas.hu/1920_f_j_p_c.html From Google translation (not perfect) - they had them in Hungary and seems they also mention possible export to Bulgaria, but it is not confirmed. They don't mention Soviet Union. Maybe it was there just on test rallies? Also it seems that 4-wheeled ones were Hungarian bodies made on different chassis with design influenced by this Crossley - or again something was not exactly translated. |

10-wheeled, not 6. Hungary had two of them. |
