Operation 25. The armoured group of Colonel General von Kleist begins its attack, spearheaded by the "Ghost Division" (11th Armoured Division). Direction: Caribrod–Niš–Belgrade. Weather: snow, rain and hail. Pictured in the foreground is an unusual and rare four-wheeler/crawler, Saurer RK-7 (Sd.Kfz. 254) – a vehicle that, depending on the terrain, used either wheels or tracks (the wheels were lowered, or retracted, based on need). Only 128 of these vehicles were produced, and they were mainly used as artillery observers (the pictured vehicle belonged to the 3rd battery of the division's artillery regiment). Seen in the background is a small command tank (kleiner Panzerbefehlswagen), Sd.Kfz. 265.

Operacija 25. Oklopna grupa general-pukovnika fon Klajsta kreće u napad, predvođena "Sablasnom divizijom" (11. oklopna divizija). Pravac: Caribrod–Niš–Beograd. Vremenske prilike: sneg, kiša i grad. Na slici se u prvom planu vidi neobični i retki četvorotočkaš/guseničar, Zaurer RK-7 (Sd.Kfz. 254) – vozilo koje je, u zavisnosti od terena, koristilo ili točkove ili gusenice (točkovi su spuštani, odnosno podizani, po potrebi). Proizvedeno je svega 128 ovih vozila, a korišćena su uglavnom kao artiljerijski osmatrači (primerak na slici pripada 3. bateriji artiljerijskog puka divizije). U pozadini se vidi i mali komandni tenk (kleiner Panzerbefehlswagen) Sd.Kfz. 265.
