Wow! Some great pics there :up:
There are some holes in that Tiger that must have really ruined the crews day for sure.
Thanks for posting.

Actually this tiger was abondened by the crew and the soviets used it for target practice , breaks my heart when i see the condition of this Tiger , they could have used a propper cammo pattern and the muzzle is not original but there is another mid war Tiger in the Kubinka museum, that one is in perfect condition, King Tiger as well and many more but as i am not russian i do need a special permit to visit that museum but i will take care of that and post some great pics soon :salute:

Could you see inside the Tiger? I was just wondering what those holes looked like from the inside and how much equipment was left in it (if any)?
I am going to the Tank Museum at Bovington (UK) this spring/summer to see their Tiger in action.:yeah:

ISU-152 , Tiger crews were very careful not to miss this selfpropelled gun with its 152 mm because it could penetrate the tiger armor with no problem but anyway the Tiger almost always came out as a winner in combat duels due to its deadly 88 mm gun and their very effective crews :rock:
