  • awesome!

  • @scottduncan44 slow turret turning of the tiger is a myth, like a lot else about this tank, whit gear on neautral engine at full rpm the turret could traverse 360 in 18 seconds, almost all german tanks had a hydraulic turret powered by a generator driven by the the trasmission shaft running in the belly of the veicle; on the other end ambushing tigers with engine shut had to relay only on manual traversing or with the engine running at minimun wich took nearly 70 seconds

  • Stugs were very effective self propelled guns because the German steering system allowed the driver to move the tracks independently thus pivoting in place. Stugs could usually realign faster than tanks could rotate their turrets. Michael Whittmann learned his craft in the Stugs on the Eastern front. He used used the technigue of pivoting on his tracks with the Tiger 1 tank rather than wait for the slower turning turret of the Tiger.

  • Thanks for the video. I think we can all agree a running stug is quite rare. In fact, I would bet such a machine would fetch a lot of money to a private collector. After reading all the books, pictures, nice ot actually see and hear one.

  • Thankyou very good.

  • 5*****. Excellent

  • nice stug! :D
