Thanks Gabor

Yes, I am aware of factory 84 (the two prototypes built were 841 and 842), but since there are no other 84 prefixed c/n, I take it the factory for some reason changed their prefix to 184....or....?
Because if not, what does the digit 1 stand for?

The factory was evacuated to Tashkent after the German invasion, but the c/n system was maintained all through the war. Not until ca 1952 did the prefix system change, that is with batch no 406.

Cheers
Stig
