These machines are amazing. If it weren't for exponentially greater number of weapons and men we threw at them, we'd never had won the war. That's a spooky thought...
@XPsycoWaffleX Btw: It is definitely the long 75mm from the Panther. There never was a 105mm in the Jagdpanther, only the long 88mm from Tiger B. The 105mm was built into the Jagdtiger besides the long 88mm as there were not enough 128mm guns to fit to the Jagdtiger .
@XPsycoWaffleX It looks like the long 75mm from PzKpfWg V Panther. Its longer than the long 88 from PzKpfWg VI Ausf. E Tiger but it has the small muzzle brake so this must be the long 75mm. The original Jagdpanther gun, the long 88mm (PaK43) from PzKpfWg VI Ausf. B Tiger B, has a bigger muzzle brake.
@Gellande I saw on another vid here on youtube that this is the Jagdpanther of the WTS in Koblenz, Germany. That means that i saw this one in action in the "Night of the Museum" here in Koblenz, i think 3 years ago. THey had just got it back from restauration and in this night, they showed all their driveable vehicles. Jagdpanther with its Maybach V12 has the most awesome engine sound i've ever heard. Almost tears in my eyes:-)
So far I agree, but it was a tank hunter, never meant to fight head on with a firefly, Jumbo or IS-2 and so on. Anyway the very sharp angle of the armour keept him unharmed as long as the enemy was not able to hit the flanks. If the Jagdpanther had a good crew, it was fatal for almost all enemy tanks in these days. The PAK 43/3 was very deadly. The penetration on a distance of 2000m with a 30 degrees angle was 139mm!!!
the best tank destroyer in the world in WWII, based on chassis of the best tank ever invented, well sloped frontal armour, triangle of balance of firepower, protection and decent cruise speed. Much much better protected than the M36 jackson, the SU-122 & 85 from the russian. and oterlly much better than the over weight gigant 128 mm Hunting tiger for tank destroyer class. Love the engine sound, all german tanks have beautiful noise, the 'porn' of gasoline maybach sexual lust in armoured warfare
Great, great,great, i love the sound!

that's rugged.. must have been a bitch trying to lock a target with that. not so much at range but close proximity must have been a bit tricky.

@Gellande not really
the armour was massiv steel plating with surface hardening
todays guns rip them apart like cardboard
and also it was only 80mm + sloping
that tank was in the ww2 awesome
but after that it was rather fast obsolete

Strange isn't it,
They gave us techology that took the allies 20-30 yrs to match.
And yet they lost
I think we can safely attribute a large portion of the blame to Hitlers inferiority complex.

That must have made maintenance/repair/upkeep a real chore, the crews would have had to remove so many wheels.
potheed29 2 years ago
Why did the germans use interleaved wheels on there heavy tanks?
potheed29 2 years ago
To help distribute the weight. German tanks like the Tiger and Panther were very heavy!
Danny77uk 2 years ago
@potheed29 to have a far better distribution of the weight of the tank into the ground and firing estability.
