btroy, not sure but it looks like something around a 1942 M72 sidecar outfit, a close copy of the BMW R71, widely deployed by the Red Army until 1959 when superceded by the K750.

That's a Harley XA. Special made for the north African campaign. They are really rare, only a thousand built and they took quite a beating during the war. Indian made a similar bike with a Moto Guzzi looking engine, but it was short on power.
