Yes - I believe that was a Kharkov (site of the famous tank manufacturing plant) and yes the tanks went to the Das Reich Divison of the SS Panzer Corps.What about the information I posted about earlier in http://www.achtungpanzer.com/panzerkamp ... ervice.htm ?There is mention of the SS taking over a Soviet T-34 tank factory – becoming SS Panzerwerk (SS Tank Workshop) to perform repairs and conversions on captured T-34s. A quantity of which went into Waffen SS service with Das Reich.
It was basically a one-off.
Several Waffen-SS did emply captured enemy tanks (the 7th SS used French tanks, the 24th SS used Italian ones, etc.) But using or refurbishig enemy tanks is more of a fringe benefit of war. It's not like you can make firm plans to form armored divisions form them.
The SS-WVHA, while it did manufacture some military supplies (uniforms, small arms, rations, construction material, etc.) is did not make tanks. (Although it did trade with vehicle manufacturers - e.g. concentration camp labor for schwimmwagens.)
The SS Main Supply Depot (SS-Hauptwirschaftlager - HWL) and their subordinate Troop Supply Depots (SS-Truppenwirschaftlager - TWL) AFAIK did not carry tanks.
Typically the allocation of German-manufacture tanks for the Waffen-SS came through the Chief Quartermaster (OQu) of the Army’s Panzer Inspectorate.
My understanding of how the system works is illustrated by the following:
1) Himmler sez to Hitler: "It would be a really great idea to create a 99th SS Panzer Division Sidfreid Guttridge!"
2) Hitler sez: "Great! I degree the formation of the 99th SS Panzer Division Sidfreid Guttridge!"
3)The SS Command Operations Office (SS-FHA) calls the Army Chief Quartermaster as says, I need some tanks for the 99th SS Panzer Division Sidfreid Guttridge
4) Army Chief Quartermaster says, " I can get you fifteen Panthers in February and twenty in March...."
