A lil bit of story of it:
Before the German occupation of Czech lands, the Škoda factory was one of the largest arms manufacturers in the world, famous for its artillery and later for its armored vehicles. In the early 1930s, Škoda became involved in the design and construction of tanks, followed by tanks. Many models, like the LT vz. 35 or the T-21 (built under license in Hungary), would be mass-produced, while others never made it past the prototype stage. Work on a new design during the war was slow, but some interesting projects would develop, such as the T-25. This was an attempt to design and build a tank that would be an effective opponent of the Soviet T-34 medium tank. It would have had an innovative main gun, well-sloped armor, and excellent speed. Unfortunately, no working prototype of this vehicle was ever built (just a wooden model) and it remained a paper project.
