Very strange Mine-clearing Panzer... anyone know more?
A while back I saw a picture of a hobby-model named "Alkett-Raümgerät Minenraumer" ( Assault Vehicle & Mine Crusher)
and of a "Minenraumpanzer III " ( Mine clearing tank), does anyone of you fine folk outthere have a real photograph of any of these vehicles I have mentioned?
I have searched the web (google/altavista/yahoo) but came up empty, perhaps because this was a prototype vehicle still in trials stage.
Any more information on it would be most valuable.
Many thanks in advance

UAAAHAHAHAHA Just look at the size of that sucker
Thanks for that fine polaroid cbo 8)
Did this thing ever saw any action? or was it just a prototype, "one-off" invention for clearing Mines?
By the looks of it, it was pretty big. It seems to have a Panzer I turret with double machine gun ports. So I´m guessing it was pretty much well over 2 and a half meters high, maybe 3.
Anyone have anymore info?

Does anyone know the width between the two hitch points?
