What in the world made that enormous hole in the turret of the Panther?  Was the New Jersey cruising nearby?

Too funny - I was thinking exactly the same thing.  FML - that scrambled all organic material inside the tank.  There are a bunch of images from the Battle of Kursk - these ones ran into 88mm field guns and large field artillery pieces.

On a side note - the Panther tanks had a very high kill ratio against the Soviets - and while the Red Army had fielded something 10'000 tanks, the 150 or so Panthers accounted for almost 30% of all the tank kills in that battle. Red Army lost over 6000 tanks. Brutal engagement. 





Now lets if I can replicate this tonight.... :x

That Panther must of been mine. One shot from any tank at Amy distance does that to me.
