Mystery Track Links

Article about: I've had these for a while but can't identify them but have my doubts whether they're WWII. Somebody suggested post-war Soviet PT-76 but they look different. Any thoughts please?

    In fact, these mystery links share some design features with this further link. This one was described as being from a WWII Soviet artillery tractor but I'm not so sure about this one now.

    The measurement from the centre of each sprocket tooth is 25cm for both links.

    Agreed with composite on that point.

    I was going to suggest MT-LB but thats the same chassis as the PT76

    Oh dear. I hope not. I tend to lose interest if something is before 1914 or after 1945.

    I must admit that these highlighted areas feature on a few post-war Soviet track links.
