Which Czech tank? There were two, after all. There was the LT vz. 35, and the LT vz. 38.

Both ultimately ended up in pretty much the same role. The Germans turned their LT vz. 38s (Panzer 38(t))into Marder IIIs, mounting captured Soviet 76.2mm guns. And the Romanians turned their LT vz. 35s (R-2 tank) into TACAM R-2s, also mounting captured Soviet 76.2mm guns.

Though perhaps somewhat ironically, the TACAM R-2 was only used against Romania’s former Hungarian and German allies.
