Finally we have come to my beloved "beutepanzers"(translated
from german: looted tanks).
These gems are 3d-printed and I like them a lot. First up is the
heavy KV-1 with a replaced german gun (PAK 40) instead of
the soviet standard. This model made after a rare photograph
taken on the eastern fron during world war 2 and the history
says it was a testmodel and never used en masse. The germans
were skilled to reuse almost anything that they came across to
help their army to become more mobile. Next are T-34/76 soviet
medium tanks that has been upgraded with schuerzen (extra
armour-plates) and a cuppola. The T-34-tanks in german service
were also fitted with a radio. To make the leading tank more
visible on the gaming-table I also added a tank-commander.
Two soviet T-70 light tanks will be used as one soviet and the
other as a german beutepanzer, both are fitted with a tank-
commander. On the eastern front a lot of tanks broke down
and had to be recovered and I have bougth 2 very nice
models that I have fitted with soviet tankdrivers to show
that they are lend lease from the USA. The recovery vehicles
are Sherman ARV and the second is a Grant ARV.
Last but not least the very nice german Berge-panther with
a lots of extra details added.
All models will be very nice to paint. To be continued. :)
