Are you asking if there were any armored recovery tank versions or munitionschleppers?

[Shermie22]

That’s right as my Porsche turret is broken I was hoping they had an arv or something, I do like the jags tiger but cannot find the resin conversion set

You could probably have a go at scratch building the uppers from plasticard, several great slabs! The detailed parts would be no worse than making the parts for a recovery vehicle. I seem to recall that a KT was not very good at pulling another KT out of trouble due to their weight and gearbox fragility, and used instead a pair of high powed half-tracks.

In line with the BergeKingTiger thought; have you seen this thread? There are a couple of links to videos in it. It doesn't have to have actually existed to still be pretty cool! viewforum.php?f=21

I'd say go for it, it would be a really interesting build

Historically I doubt there were berge-KTs, but a spare KT turret is reasonably easy to get. Here for example you can get a replacement upper hull, turret, gun and various mechanisms for 50 euros.

Make your own! Use the 8.8cm gun, or make a bigger one! Use sheet plastic and the hatches from your Porsche turret and the rear hatch and make your own Super Stug!
