What did they do with the light french tankbodies after removing the turrets for use in the A’wall?
I thought the german bodies where used again as tractor or repairtank.
Jos, nice drawing, do you have the archive numbers of them?
Are there drawings of the french tankturrets on a bunker (FT17 on Tobruk)?

wood used???
So this is not a real Tiger turret after all then... or according to the forum member . Well then some one has to see that movie and tell us what it is . Anyone has that movie at home?S_haule wrote:THe translation of Russian is :
" Of course it isn't a Panther, it is an extract from a GRD film of 1968. The turret seems to be modern "

Also I am surprised by another picture posted on the Russian thread:
http://ostpanzer.com/forum/index.php?s= ... st&id=1495
A Panther turret on a WOODEN structure. How can it actually fire or rotate? The back force when a shoot is done would crack the wooden structure easily. Can anyone explain this, why such a "thing" was built?! Also thanks for the thread Sanders. There are great pictures on that forum topic you posted. 8)
Thanks in advance
