Return to Book Page. The armor clashes in May were the biggest the world had yet seen, as the German advances of that period came to epitomize Blitzkrieg. Nonetheless the Wehrmacht's Panzer III was well matched by the French Somua S35; the two representing very different design philosophies and yet ranking among the best designs in the world at the time.

This book brilliantly illustrates the weakness of all French tanks of World War Two. Even though French tanks were more heavily armored and in many cases had more powerful guns they still were defeated in battle due to their design flaws the commander also fired the main gun and the lack of tactical radios. Their employment in penny-packets rather than in armored divisions sealed their fate.

Jagdpanzer 38 Hetzer Early
JAGDPANZER38 3711 HETZER EARLY eduard 1:35 FIRST, A FEW WORDS... ...ON THE WAR: The Second World War, from a German perspective, was not evolving favorably in 1943. Heavy losses at Stalingrad, the capitulation of German and Italian forces in North Africa in May, the defeat at the Battle of Kursk in July, and the Allied landings in Italy put increasing stresses on the German military. Furthermore, an increasingly concentrated fury from above in the form of the allied bombing campaign appeared that threatened to reduce the Reich to rubble. This campaign began to extract a heavy toll on the German ability to produce and support her weapons, including the production of tanks. On the other hand, war production in the Soviet Union and the United States steadily increased, and production figures attained were in the thousands. The German planners and designers were faced with some difficult decisions with respect on how to address the situation. One The original Pz.38(t) light tank effective method was to construct a series of tank hunter/destroyers on the chassis of existing tanks, foto V.Francev via MBI resulting in vehicles such as the Sturmgeschütz, for use in infantry support. One huge advantage of such vehicles was their relative simplicity when compared to the classic tank. There was no turret, and the complexities associated with the manufacture and installation of the turret were eliminated. The vehicles would be armed with Pak 39 anti tank guns of 75mm caliber, and were called Jagdpanzer (Fighter Tank - Tank Destroyer). Progressively, this concept was applied to other tank chassis as well. -

Hotchkiss H 35 1/35
1/35 HOTCHKISS H 35 81132 81132-076 F Au début des années 30, l’armée française n’a toujours pas trouvé de remplaçant pour le char FT qui est devenu obsolète. Les budgets d’armement sont en forte hausse car la situation internationale commence à se dégrader. Alors que les autorités militaires tardent à publier les spécifications pour un nouveau char, le directeur de la société HOTCHKISS va prendre l’initiative de rencontrer les membres de l’Etat-Major autour d’une maquette en plâtre pour leur montrer ce qu’ils peuvent attendre de la technologie militaire existant alors. C’est de ces entretiens que va naître le programme de chars légers. Dès lors cela va lui permettre de pouvoir présenter son avant-projet six semaines avant la publication du programme officiel, coiffant sur le poteau tous ses concurrents. Les desiderata de l’armée s’orientent vers un char léger de petite taille dont le poids ne doit pas excéder les cinq ou six tonnes. Il est d’ailleurs envisagé qu’il puisse s’agir d’un char casemate donc sans tourelle, pour l’alléger. Le programme de chars légers est publié le 2 août 1933 alors qu’ HOTCHKISS a déjà reçu une commande de trois prototypes plusieurs semaines auparavant. Les deux premiers sont présentés à la commission de Vincennes le 18 janvier 1935. Il s’agit de chars casemates dont la caisse est en acier moulé, ce qui est plutôt novateur pour l’époque. Mais ils ne répondent déjà plus aux nouvelles spécifications car entre-temps le nouveau canon de 25 mm est produit en série et sa munition perce aisément les 30 mm de blindage qui paraissaient bien suffisants un an plus tôt. -

Two were lost in combat, while the company commander's tank became irrecoverably trapped after falling into a bomb crater created during Operation Goodwood. Sturmartillerie and Panzerjager — No No Pivot. Early Tiger IIs proved unreliable, owing principally to leaking seals and gaskets, and an overburdened drive train originally intended for a lighter vehicle. The Tiger II was the successor to the Tiger I , combining the latter's thick armour with the armour sloping used on the Panther medium tank. If power was lost, such as when the tank ran out of fuel, the turret could be slowly traversed by hand, assisted by the loader who had an additional wheel, which could manually rotate the turret at a rate of one-half a degree per each revolution of the hand crank i.

British Armour in the Normandy Campaign, Pros and Cons Pros: - Same armor layout as the original Tiger II with top turret, which proved to be very strong against tier 7 opponents - High penetrating gun for its tier, able to penetrating any opponents it face when placed at the top tier in a match - High view range, can snipe rather well - Cheap ammunition cost; good credit earner Cons: - Low HP pool for its size , vulnerable against SPGs - Shared the same weakspot as the original Tiger II, lower plate and side armor were an obvious weakspots - Overall mobility is horrid!
