Re: Tiger II, Power on the Prowl
Maybach did make aircraft engines but I don't believe those in armour were the same as those.

Haven't seen this shot anywhere...knocked out Ausf.B / Henschel on an Ami heavy transport/revcovery trailer.

Re: Tiger II, Power on the Prowl
I believe it's immediately "Post Ardennes", look at that trailer! Better suited to an M4 or M10....not a lot of tire for all that load!

How does one clean a dirty Tiger II?




Mit eine Panzer Bad!

Unfortunately there was probably more mud right at the end of the tough.

Re: Tiger II, Power on the Prowl

A Tiger II rumbles though Budapest to counter Russian forces late in the war.
Note the battle damage to the facade of the building in the background



The crew of a Tiger II make some quick repairs on the Western Front in 1944
