Hello,

in 1944 the Germans tested at the Belgian coast their tank obstacles, by letting a Panther tank run against the obstacles.
The results were disappointing for the builders of the antitank obstacles!
Reports of résistance intelligence suggest this trials occurred at Ostend and Knokke, they refer to a Tiger tank, but it was a Panther.

regards,

Cnock
