Jadgpanther and m36 both knocked out after battle very cool pic

[bangsbox]

note the hole in the jadg, I wonder what might have done that

[PR3D4TOR]

Just about anything. The Jagdpanther had side armor only 45 mm thick.

Btw. unless you have a caption or other info that says otherwise, to me that M36 doesn't look knocked out. It looks like it's just parked there. Perhaps the crew of that M36 took the photo as a trophy of the Jagdpanther they killed?

scroll left on the pic to see the whole m36 and you will think otherwise. and pic caption did say it was knocked out

[PR3D4TOR]

Ok.

I think there is a penetration hole on the front right side of the hull of the m36 right above front track sprocket, which would probably account for the bowing of the lower hull.

[PR3D4TOR]

I think you're right. The long gash on the side that I though was just picture damage could be the exit hole.
