Tiger I-One Tough Cat

[LAH 1 SS]

This is the rear photo of the tiger 231 which you just posted Cyberia. The s-mine launcher in the middle is the launcher situated just near the cooling grills for the radiator's just behind the turret. A good photo of the feifel air cleaner's by the way

Thanks. Its from Horst Scheibert book "Panzer, A Pictorial Documentation". A must have if you're into Panzer pics.

So then this is an example of the five s mine configuration and the two in the rear are only in the driver's side. Cool, thanks for the explanation LAH!

Cyberia yes that ia an example of a 5 s-mine launcher configured tiger 1. The next tiger is a great example of an early tiger 1. I can't make out the turret numbers however, the vehicle displays the charging bison unit symbol of s Pzabt 505 at the begining of Operation Zitadelle on the Kursk assailant on the driver's side of the glacis plate . The tiger has a base coat of dark yellow with red brown oversprayed over the yellow. A good photo for the modeller again look at the mud and build up in the track link's

Here ya go LAH. A bit blurry but I don't think we've seen this one here yet...

Ah tiger 233 of s SS Pzabt 501 this is another second comapny vehicle same as the tiger 223 which you posted earlier in the thread just a little down the order that's all. The special thing about this vehicle is it had a ladies name DOROTHEE on the gun barrel. If i remember rightly this vehicle was used as a reference point by the company Techmod who produced a set of decal's to depict this very vehicle

Ladies and gentlemen, the Tiger man himself, the amazing LAH!!!

Take a bow, Steve.
