Man, dat's a lot o' steel!

Gear down. Check. Flaps down. Check. Clear for final approach.

thank you

very interesting

danasan · 08-12-11, 11:30 AM

Tank you all for paying attention!

I forgot: As we had to record everything concerning these tanks: They tend to drink a bit: On the road 165 Liter per 100 km; in heavy duty up to 500 Liter per hour. But you could put almost any liquid into it...

I am sure I have a picture where the Leopard stands on top of a little "hill" on the 4th pair of wheels only, but in balance...

...like the next step of this:

Very nice (goes off to play World of Tanks).

Spyguy101 · 08-12-11, 12:47 PM

Now I know where to get those critical hits in WoT

danasan · 08-12-11, 01:28 PM

Pete, you mentioned the little tiny Mouse (Maus)

so we should not forget the giant Goliath

krashkart · 08-12-11, 02:30 PM

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

That reminds me...got to pop back there next time I'm down there to see the Matilda.

Why not the tank forum, Feuer?

Anyhow, I take the freedom to link this thread to the eSim forum as well. Maybe some of the guys there feel tempted to contribute something.

I thought it may get more 'hits' in the GT section. The tank forum seems a little too tucked away.
I guess it's not a gaming thread this one.

I'm glad you posted here, I would not have seen the thread otherwise.

Awesome pictures and info, THANK YOU.
