I don't see how it could be possible for the Leichter Kampfwagen to be based on the Whippet. The development of the Leichter Kampfwagen I started at least two months before the Whippets even became active for the first time - and the Leichter Kampfwagen II is basically the same design. Both Fletcher and Strasheim considered it a myth. Are there any new data showing otherwise?

[edit] Aberdeen maryland

I assume that the tank can be seen at the aberdeen proving grounds in aberdeen maryland, which is an american military base. I know for a fact that there isn't a Whippet in the middle of aberdeen. Eli H 21:09, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Your assumption is of course completely correct :o). I've expanded the text accordingly. The base is home to what is, among other things, the largest tank museum in the USA: the United States Army Ordnance Museum.--MWAK 07:21, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
