Re: panther panzer 1v mix
Hey Tanker,
You talking about this beast?




An explaination from the net, "Interesting conversion was Ausf D1 (some sources state that it was an early model Bergepanther** ) fitted with bolted on PzKpfw IV Ausf H's turret (that could not be traversed), which served as a command tank of schwere Heeres Panzerjager Abteilung 653 on the Eastern Front in early/mid of 1944. The same unit used other early model Bergepanther that was mounted with 20mm Flakvierling anti-aircraft gun and Flakpanzer T-34(r)."
Hope this helps...
Derek

Re: panther panzer 1v mix
I saw that one too with the same explaination. At first thought it would be fun to try but then though a shame for accuracy that the turret is fixed. Still...
