Tanks, tanks...

Four tanks from the Second World War and the Cold War are standing in front of the gates of the Fazer candy factory for a reason. The factory occupies the buildings of the former Finnish Armored Military Academy. In the foreground is a German self-propelled gun StuG.III Ausf.G with a 75 mm gun. The Finns received 69 different StuG.IIIs from the Germans during WW2. In the background is an English Comet Mk.1 Model B with an 84 mm cannon. Developed in 1944-45, it did not have time to take part in battles; it was delivered to Finland in the late 1950s. There is also the English Charioteer Mk.7 and the Soviet T-54 tanks.
