Title: Re: So you think you know your German armor
Post by: TIMMY on August 29, 2008, 05:17:35 PM
jagdpanther had an 88 and the chassis of a panther

its profile is way to high for a jagdpanzer altought it has the same gun mantlet
i think from memory it was just called the panzer 4 L70 ironiclly enough

i think it was one of the first times a l70 was mated to a P4 chassis  in response to the heavier soviet tanks
but was replaced by the jagdpanzer due to many reasons including high profile and production costs and time

Here's some more info: Only 278 built.
I find it Jagdpanzer IV/70(A) was issued first in September of 1944. It was issued as regular tank to Panzer Abteilungs or as a replacement assault gun to Panzer and Stug Brigades. It was used as an anti-tank support vehicle for regular battle tanks. Most of the vehicles saw service on the Eastern Front. On April 10th of 1945, there were still 285 Jagdpanzer IV/70 in service with the German Army, 274 on the Eastern Front, 8 in Italy and 3 on the Western Front. After the war, approximately 6 Jagdpanzer IVs (L/48 and L/70) found their way to Syria. http://www.achtungpanzer.com/jagdpanzer-iv-sd-kfz-162-75mm-l48-1944.htm were i find it :D

Weel, hmmm... Good question???

Kind of an oddball for sure..

Its a panzer IV chassis, no question...

And it looks like a Brumbar upper hull...
With a w a A/P firing gun installed instead of the gigantic mortar...

And the gun (pighead) mantlet looks reminiscent of Hetzer, Jagdpanther, or Jagdtiger

My guess???  Is that it is a Brumbar, modified cuz they didn't have much use
for the big pintle mounted mortar late in the war...

Guess I'm wrong, at least I took an honest guess!!!

As said before it's a Jagdpanzer IV/70 (A), also known as Panzer IV/70 (A). The A stands for Alkett, the manufacturer/developer. It was not called "Zwischenlösung" as it's often wrongly reported. The Jagdpanzer IV/70 (A) is basically a Jagdpanzer IV/70 (V) -V=VoMAG - superstructure bolted on top of a standard Panzer IV chassis thus the stepped armor and increased height.

http://www.panzerseite.de/P6Jagtiger.htm

Oops, didnt look at the chassis close enough. Damn, I am stumped. Don't know without more research. Its not a Jagtiger, Jagpanther, or a Stug. Hmmm.

Found it: Its a Jadgpanzer IV/70(A) but I had to look it up. 

http://www.smallsoldier.ca/images/Pics%204%20Web/Doug%20%20Jameson%20German%20Armor%20WW2/Jagdpanzer%20IV%2070%20A/DJJagdpanzerIV70A.jpg

"Jagdpanzer IV/70 (A) (Sd.Kfz.162/1) was the other PaK 42 L/70 armed Jagdpanzer IV. This differed in that its superstructure was mounted directly on the original Panzer IV chassis and as such lacked the sharp edged nose of the other variants. Only 278 were built during 1944 and 1945. The (A) stands for the builder, Alkett."

Wow! Is this thing still clinging to life? I encountered a variant I'd never seen, figured out it's a Jadgpanzer IV/70(A), posted it up for fun, dealt with Lusche (:D), and then watched the show.

Frankly I was surprised I wasn't inundated with Jadgtiger? posts, though the chassis, front plate, and smallish gun should set most guys straight. Thanks for the additional info Squire :aok. After reading your post, it became obvious this vehicle was a late war effort to field more vehicles as quickly as possible.

:salute to glock89. IMO this one took a bit of work.

Here's an easier one. This is obviously a Panther. But tell me what's so special about this Panther?

The single early Panther Ausf D along with a PzKpfw VI Tiger that was sold to Japan, but both were never delivered due to the war situation and were loaned by Japan to the German Army.

Edit: Japanese Military Attache Colonel Ioshida, in the picture gave it away.

And in the second picture looks to be Japanese military liaisons in the gunners and commanders hatches.

The Hetzer lineage is clear with the sloping armor on all 4 sides, but the huge tube threw me.  The upper works are obviously added on so it is an ersatz infantry support vehicle.  A little digging and I find it. 

In November of 1944, it was decided to use Jadgpanzer 38(t) as a base for 150mm sIG33/2 carrier. From December of 1944 to the end of the war total of 30 carriers was produced by BMM (Praga/CKD). They were designated as 15cm Schweres Infanteriegeschuetz 33/2 (Sf) auf Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer.

An interesting Porche prototype, VK4502(P), Porche's design for the Tiger II.  The Porche designed early turret was a hint that got me looking at Porche prototypes in the first place, and the mid engine design just SCREAMS Porche too.  That was too big of a hint, especially for Tiger II fans. 

Oh, BTW the proper nomenclature for the turret is the "early" turret, not the Porche turret.  Both the Porche and Henchel turrets were actually built by Krupp but the Henchel version eliminated a number of problems that the Porche turret had, in particular a nasty shell trap under the gun mantlet and a bulge in the turret's left hand side armour where the commander's cupola was situated.

Unfortunately for Dr. Porsche his fascination with advanced engine design led to the ultimate failure of the VK 4502 (P). The 10-cylinder engines failed during trials, and there was no confidence that the design would bear fruit (given previous Porsche failures using the same drivetrain layout). Work continued into the middle of 1944, but progress to get the design working failed.  Ultimately the 50 turrets Porche produced through Krupp for the VK 4502 (P), were converted for use on the Henschel Tiger II to eliminate waste.


Oh BTW glock89, change the images name, next time.  I saved it to have a visual reference when searching, and thought you had, but it was the prototype number, go figure.

An interesting Porche prototype, VK4502(P), Porche's design for the Tiger II.  The Porche designed early turret was a hint that got me looking at Porche prototypes in the first place, and the mid engine design just SCREAMS Porche too.  That was too big of a hint, especially for Tiger II fans. 

Oh, BTW the proper nomenclature for the turret is the "early" turret, not the Porche turret.  Both the Porche and Henchel turrets were actually built by Krupp but the Henchel version eliminated a number of problems that the Porche turret had, in particular a nasty shell trap under the gun mantlet and a bulge in the turret's left hand side armour where the commander's cupola was situated.

Unfortunately for Dr. Porsche his fascination with advanced engine design led to the ultimate failure of the VK 4502 (P). The 10-cylinder engines failed during trials, and there was no confidence that the design would bear fruit (given previous Porsche failures using the same drivetrain layout). Work continued into the middle of 1944, but progress to get the design working failed.  Ultimately the 50 turrets Porche produced through Krupp for the VK 4502 (P), were converted for use on the Henschel Tiger II to eliminate waste.

Guys,

Cool thread and I wish I could have been posting but have been away on work (my reference library is home).

Some of you might enjoy this site although its "early internet" and a little cheesy:

http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/Quarters/2387/ (http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/Quarters/2387/)

I started this site back in 96-7 and one of my "other" hobbies is 1/35th scale armor. At the time I was majorly fasinated with captured armor and had been scannning materials and photos I have. Work, life etc goes on (and I lost the password to the old site so, it kind of sits in e-limbo).

The other cool thing that I started in 01, was traveling the world for work and have had the oppurtunity to visit some great Armor musueums throughout the world. Kublinka, Samur aside,  I would highly reccomend the Deutches Armor Musuem in Munster, as well as the former GDR Army Musueum in Dresden.

Here is some of my work:

3.  Tank Cruiser, Ram Mk II  Canadian.  Built by The Montreal Locomotive Works, which was a subsidiary of the American Locomotive Company, and was re-designated the Canadian Tank Arsenal.  The current U.S. tank, the M3, was chosen as the basis for the design (that is why the front transmission cover and drive train look so familiar).

1.  PzH 2000  Modern German SPG

2.  Marmon-Herrington CTLS With the right hand turret mounting. The Marmon-Herrington CTLS was a US light tank produced for the export market at the start of the Second World War. The vehicle had a crew of two and was armed with three machine guns: one in a revolving turret and the others in the bow under the control of the driver.

A few saw combat in the Netherlands East Indies campaign against the Japanese invasion. In mid-1942 a batch was diverted to Australia from the Dutch order where they were used for training.

After the attack on Pearl Harbor some of these tanks were taken over by the US Marines and employed in Northern Alaska as the T14 and T15 (designation depending on mounting position of the turret).

Um... I hate to break it to you, but that is the early version of the Mk II.  You are probably being confused by the Mk V six-pounder in the turret, witch was only on the late version Ram Mk II.  As that is not a two-pounder in the turret for it to be a Mk I.

    Early production: Mk III QF 6 pounder gun (92 rounds).  (Just an up-gunned Mk I.)
    Late production: Mk V six-pounder. Auxiliary turret and sponson door removed. Browning .303 in (7.7 mm) machine gun fitted in ball mount.

The Vehicle to the left is a British Sherman Based BARV (Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle), or known as the Sea Lion.

What is interesting is it is the very very early M4 with the three piece transmission cover, which before the conversion would have had the M34 Turret. It is roughly a pre-41 Model and even by the Shermans first combat debut for the British at El Alamein they had already chaged to the M4A1

Middle one is a T-55

The top one is a prototype "big wheel" from an idea Winston Churchill had.

You know that just because it's name may not be anywhere close to 'T72' doesn't mean it's not a variant or foreign copy of a T72 right? Because that definitely looks like a variant of foreign copy of the T72.

It's a T-84. A development of the T-80U. The T-72 is from a completely different family of Russian tanks than the T-84. Saying it's a version of the T-72 just because it's Russian is like saying the M1 Abrams is a version of the M60A3, just because both are American.

There are two distinct lines of Russian tanks. One started with the T-55 and includes the T-62, T-72 and T-90. The other line started with the T-64 and includes the T-80 and T-84. Besides having the same armament the two lines have little in common. In fact the M1 Abrams and the German Leopard 2 have far more in common than the T-72 and T-80.


- The T-84 is actually Ukrainian, not Russian.

Leopard 2, first production batch. Only the first 200 examples had the PZB 200 image intensifier and the wind sensor. However it looks slightly modified/upgraded. Might be a preproduction machine, or a prototype.

No wait! Those blasted Japanese have done it again and copied a German machine (I though they stuck to just cars). It's a Type 90. Well, to be fair the Type 90 was developed with the help of the Germans and it has the same Rheinmetall gun.

Back to the Picture of the King Tiger which was identified in the most futile of fashions...    :O :eek: :confused:

it's a Porsche turret, opposed to the Henschel turret that saw the majority of the production. The difference is that the front of the Porsche turret is rounded, and the Commander's Cupola bulges out to the side a bit. Designers were worried that the rounded turret would deflect rounds on to the top of the Driver's compartment
Title: Re: So you think you know your German armor
Post by: Denniss on September 27, 2008, 11:25:38 AM
Both turets of the Tiger II were designed by Krupp. The image shows the turret designed for the Porsche version of the Tiger II that lost the competition. As Krupp was just not yet ready to start production of the turret designed for the Henschel Tiger II (that won the competition) they used the "Porsche" turret on the first 49 production Tiger II, then switching over to the turret specifically designed for the Henschel chassis. This later turret is also known as the production turret.

Regarding the Marder II, this is the early version (Sd.Kfz. 132) and this one was equipped with the soviet 76,2 mm anti-tank gun.

I don't really know what you mean but the hull resembles the Japanese Type 89 tank and the running gear resembles the leaf springed bogie arrangement used on the Vickers 6Ton tank (also seen on Soviet T26 and Italian M13/40 tanks) Having the drive sprocket at the rear is inovative too.

The vehicle is very different from the more common Japanese tanks but then, it had to be. It's a specialist engineering vehicle designed to do a specific job no different than what other countries came up with to deal with certain battlefield problems.

You have a keen insight sir, but the correct answer is: It's a Soukou Sagyou Ki "SS-Ki" Armored Engineering Vehicle. Used for many different tasks during the war, including as a flame thrower tank. Production began in 1935.

It was a bit difficult that one, the next one is less 'obscure', but still not 'easy'. :)

As for the German E-25...It's a fantasy...never built...lets stick to tanks that actually made it into production not pipe dreams ok?

-----------------------------------------
As for the Japanese Flame Thrower tank...It's based on the Type 89. It's proper name was Soukou Sagyou Ki "SS-Ki" Armored Engineering Vehicle. So to say that the vehicle was based on the Soukou Sagyou Ki "SS-Ki" Armored Engineering Vehicle is incorrect. That is actually the vehicle. It's based on the 89.

There have been several prototypes and vehicles that never made it to production already posted in this thread. You didn't seem to have any problems with them. The Entwicklungsfahrzeug series was a serious late-war tank development program that spawned several prototypes. The E-25 I posted was the second project vehicle, designed by Argus in Karlsruhe under the leadership of Dr. Hermann Klaue. Three prototypes were made.I guess my short answer is: No. :)



As for the Japanese Flame Thrower tank...It's based on the Type 89. It's proper name was Soukou Sagyou Ki "SS-Ki" Armored Engineering Vehicle. So to say that the vehicle was based on the Soukou Sagyou Ki "SS-Ki" Armored Engineering Vehicle is incorrect. That is actually the vehicle. It's based on the 89.

The FT tank version was based on the SS-Ki CEV, which in turn was a development of the Type 89B. You didn't get the correct name of the vehicle. In fact you didn't specify any vehicle name or designation at all in your original answer. Live with it. :)

About the strv103 :
Did you know Strv103 had automatic loading system allowing 15 rounds per minute ?
Did you know the tank could travel backwards as fast as forward ? One crewman is actually sitting as reardriver and could drive backward to next defending position alredy dug in prepared.
You had a sihulette of less than one meter high when in dugin position.
I served some with 103 as well .

Look at this picture how its builtin dozer blade prepare the tank itself for a defensive position.

A new vehicle :

After taking my driver licence - this is the first vehicle I drove 2 days after  :cool:
It also good to know that the 14 rounds was automatic loaded . this made it possible to shoot a full series of 14 shots and the vehicle could move before 1rst round landed 21km down the road.
It was uses as a divisional attachment company.

Actually that does seem right, that looks bigger than a 152mm gun, and different from the other pictures I've seen of the SP-gun I'm thinking of.... *mutters about people using the wrong pictures...*

The SP-gun I was thinking of was the SU-14, but the gun in the picture looks quite different than the one in the Kubinka Tank Museum...

What about this tank?

I told you. I have a job.

It's a Frankenstein Panzer 38t. I have no pics of it in my books. It has the look of a SIG 33/2 auf Hetzer but the unarmored engine deck is wrong for that vehicle.

I believe . . .

15 cm Schweres Infanteriegeschütz 33 (Sf) auf Panzerkampfwagen 38(t) Ausf. H (Sd.Kfz. 138/1).

I knew it as the "Bison 38H", but it took me a bit of googling to get a proper name for it.  Blooz, you probably have a picture of the M version in which the engine was moved forward and the gun mounted on the back.  But the H version still had the engine to the rear and short-barreled gun placed forward.

Going to say T-54/55 ARV?

Close.... it is actually a Piloted/Remote Control Firefighting Vehicle based on the T-55 MBT.

Fire Fighting Vehicle SPOT-55

SPOT-55 is a special tracked fire fighting vehicle mounted on the chassis of T-55 tank manufactured at the Military Repair Corporation 025 in Nový Jičín. It is designed to fight any kind of fire in difficult terrain and in industrial conglomerations (besides forests, it can be engaged in power plants, oil refineries, surface mines or at gas pipelines).

This system has two water tanks to hold 11,000 litres. The central tank can keep 9,000 litres and the side tank up to 2,000 litres. A foam tank can contain 2000 litres of frothing agent generated within the vehicle. Moreover, it is equipped with two powder extinguishers. The front part of the vehicle is equipped with two high-pressure revolving streamlines, while three hand streamlines can be attached to the rear part of the vehicle. When engaged at a fire, the body of the vehicle is cooled by water fog driven out of numerous pressure jets on the vehicle surface.

During operation water can be re-supplied by a pump pulling from a depth of 7.5 metres. Another possible means of water supply are two water tanks connected to the rear of the vehicle or the connection of the SPOT-55 vehicle to two fire noodles or water hydrants.

The crew of two inside the vehicle is protected against heat, radioactive contamination and fallout. The vehicle is equipped with TV a system, three radio stations and a local telephone circuit. The SPOT-55, capable of being remote-controlled up to the distance of 1,500 metres, is used by rescue and fire fighter units and by some civilian fire squads.

Basic Technical Data
Maximum weight: 45,000 kg
Operation range: 170 km
Maximum speed: 50 km/h
Diesel four-stroke engine output: 425 kW
Slope/gradient climbing capability: 20 °
Fording depth: 1,400 mm
Water stream capacity: 2,270 litres per minute
Maximum distance of water stream
With water: 65 m
With foam: 50 m



There is also a company out there that makes something similar useing surpluss German LEOPARD I MBT's:  http://www.jumbofiretank.com/www_jumbo/home.htm

now i look at it closer i think  you may be right
those tracks look too wide and it looks like a vietnam era photo


EDIT: hrrrm this is confusing the posted photo has the features of both 

m42
(http://www.thetankmaster.com/IMAGES/AFV/CampRipley/M42_DUSTER/M42_DUSTER_02.jpg)

m19
(http://www.battletanks.com/images/M19_GMC.jpg)

i think its an m19 just updated a little

in the posted photo the shadows show it is close to midday at the time of the photo which shows that the guns dont protrude past the front of the hull so it a rear mount and the frontal amour is of a m19
but in saying that the turret looks slightly different, the tracks are the same as a m42 and a cant see a spider web gunsight anywhere
(http://www.lzbetty.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/2nd1st04.jpg)
IMO i think its a m19 updated for korea cause thephoto quality is too good for ww2 but i dont think m19 where used in vietnam


Title: Re: So you think you know your German armor
Post by: Jester on December 30, 2008, 02:37:45 AM
No doubt they are M42 DUSTER's.

(http://www.lzbetty.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/2nd1st04.jpg)

Lets take your picture......

1. Check the Black guy's boots - they are Jungle Boots. That and the connex boxes in the background make this a Vietnam era photograph. Neither was in use during the Korean War.

2.  Though the two vehicles are the similar - there is a major difference in the two. The M19 GMC is based on the M24 Chaffee Light tank while the M42 Duster is based on the M41 Walker Bulldog Light tank. The M19 was a major modification to the design of the tank with the turret moved toward the rear while the M42's turret was designed to sit right in the original turret ring of the M41 tank and was pretty much as original.

3.  In your photo above if you will look above each fender at the oval opening with the pipe sticking out - this is the exhaust for the vehicle. Very prominent on the M42 Duster. Your photo shows the rear of each vehicle with the turret turned to the rear. Most likely for travel. Also note the arm projection on the left side of the turret - another prominent feature of the M42 Duster - not seen on the M19.

If you will look at the two links below and look at the rear of the vehicles you can see the difference.

M19:  http://www.battletanks.com/m19_gmc.htm

M42:  http://www.battletanks.com/m42_sp_aa.htm

Good debate on the vehicle. Interesting subject.   :aok

It's a dolled up T-55.

The cannon is a NATO 105mm so I'm thinking it's a former warsaw pact easern block nation upgrading it's old soviet crap.

The FT-17 had variants for MGs only, a short 37mm gun, and a 75mm howitzer.  I suppose it could be the 37mm version, then.  There was also a command version without any gun.  It looks like there is a gun there, but I am having a hard time deciding if it is a gun or a trick of the light/angle.

Taking a cue from the big Italian tank to the right, I suppose it could be the Italian version of the FT-17 which was the Fiat-3000.

If none of those, I will wait for Blooz to come back.
