Tiznao

This is the "Tiznao", the name given to the armored cars in Spanish Civil, of the past picture. The effectiveness of this war machine was limited, because they were very slow; with poor armament, usually light and heavy machine guns; and thin armor, composed of metal plates of a few millimeters. In the side we read: "Hermanos no tirar" / "Brothers do not shot." We do not know exactly the meaning of this message, but it's possible that they did not want to be shot or something like this, because they were fighting against brothers.
