By mid-1942 the shortage of tungsten needed for production of anti-tank artillery shells was so critical that the Heereswaffenamt issued a specification calling for a Panzerabwehrrakete (anti-tank missile) fitted with hollow charge warhead. Early in 1943, Dr. Otto Kramer began the development...

Hi everyone, I tend to be quite interested in discussing the details of a scenario where the Entente holds the front near the Franco-Belgian border in 1940 (mostly in other forums). I was now wondering what the impacts would be for the RAF. Obviously we may see fewer American aircrafts in...

Looking through a book about Wehrmacht Field Artillery, I came across a list of which type of vehicle was supposed to tow each type of artillery piece. I'm looking for a similar list for Wehrmacht towed Anti-Tank Guns. Can anyone help ? cheers, Robin.

Hello again everyone, I am not sure how rare this is, yet I stumbled across the following link while looking for inspiration: https://www.panzer-modell.de/berichte/brencarrier/bren.php At first, I thought it was a tongue-in-cheek story invented for a model, similar to the likes of Luft46...

While looking through a seemingly random search result, I found a particular drawing that stood out to me as it does not seem to be discussed much outside of this VK thread where I found it... Here are the details found in said article: There is also a blueprint and a recreation of said...

Hello all. I am not sure if this post really belongs here or not, but I just found the photo below and I find the theoretical implications fascinating. It sure looks like a Panzer II turret with a 37mm gun. Sure enough, it is. This turret was used on the Atlantik Wall as a static defensive...

Hi all, i found this article from Wired about a common problem that plagues Wikipedia: unreliable/dubious sources and fan edits, all of which have caused it to be seen as untrustworthy and/or not taken seriously as a reputable source by netizens. In this case it narrates someone's struggle to...

Hi this is my first post - I'm intersting in German technology, specially in armour. Some times ago I saw this pictu were any photos of this vehicle? or any informations?

According to Spielberger, the Panther was tested with a BMW 132 radial engine. Tests were promising, but the book has no details. Anyone with further information?

When the Germans realised they needed self-propelled artillery (as opposed to Assault guns) to keep up with the Panzers, their initial efforts involved conversions of various captured vehicles to carry artillery along with the creation of three interim conversions based on tanks already in...
