Bulgaria was pro-German but switched sides in 1944 when it was obvious Germany was losing the war.

From Mehlsack- "I am pretty sure that it is one of the 13 cars that were sold to Bulgaria during the late 30s. They were used with the First Armoured Battalion of the Bulgarien Forces, e.g. against the Germans in Hungary in February 1945. Watch the "license number" with a big "B"!

The T-11 was built with an improved Škoda A7 gun, which had a longer barrel and was used on the LT vz. 38. Only ten T-11 tanks were built, and they were delivered to Bulgaria in the third quarter of 1940."
