NotesThe OA Vz.30 (Obrněný Automobil Vzor 30) was an armoured car built by the Czech firm Tatra. It was armed with two machine guns and one of these was mounted in a fully revolving turret and the second was mounted in the hull front. It was only thinly armoured and underpowered which gave the vehicle a poor cross country capability. They were issued to reconnaissance companies located in their four fast divisions.
