[Aussie]

Nice clear image of plenty of stowage on top of a cope cage.

[HERMAN BIX]

Note the state of the rear mounted fuel drums!
Mounts compressed against the rear plate & one missing
Great cage picture of the flotsam and jetsam of daily combat.
Lack of side skirts & ERA is also of note.

[Kaczor]

Great picture. Taken probably in the begining of the war (vide winter clothing).

Herman , those mounts unbolt from there brackets when they aren't using the 44's and get remounted in there , shown , folded position.
They aren't all squashed up to the chassis from poor Russian reversing skills,

Looks like a protective, plastic, outer covering on the tow cables.

I think the steel cables used to manufacture the cable are just really finely woven. Plastic cover would be worthless after 6 months in the sun or in the cold as it would just crack and peal off.
