Pete, you mentioned the little tiny Mouse (Maus)

so we should not forget the giant Goliath

Just found this after looking at the Maus:

Not a tank. A self-propelled 600mm mortar. Sends a chill down my spine.

And every time I see the word Gerat I immediately think Balkan-Gerat.

@danasan - Thank you for sharing pics from your tanker days.

EDIT:

Eye candy. Building in Warsaw after hit from the Karl Device.

here is a 80 cm shell from the Gustav. The Gustav was used in Sevastopol.

And a T 34 to show the relations:

Edit: These 80 cm shells should have been the Primary armament of the Landkreuzer P.1500
