I'm referring to the APC closest to the camera. The two tanks furthest left and furthest right are Leopards (already listed on this page) and there are two more APCs in the background. The "tanks" furthest away are actually wooden cutouts (If you look closely you can tell) because they couldn't get many tanks for this film.

I am at it, but that one is a trouble maker!

At the moment I can only think of two tanks with four main wheels, and both are WWII. It looks too detailed for a mock up, so I guess it is a real tank.

I'll keep that one in my mind. It will turn up....

There's also a tank featured in Extras (/movie_445114-Extras.html) that no one's identified yet.

It tries to look like a Cadillac M114 Command and Reconnaissance Carrier, which was used by the US Army in Germany in the 1960s and 70s.
But the wheels on the M114 are too far apart:

Go it at last!

This is an FMC M113A1½ Armored Command and Reconnaissance Carrier. It is based on the M113, developed as a private venture in 1963, and was sold to the Netherlands in 1966 and Canada in 1968.

This one is a Canadian version known as the FMC ACRC Lynx.
