I'm all for Gun threads, nice that they belatedly get a mention here!
I also like Gun Mk II which changed its moniker to Baker Gurvitz
Wehrmacht Army
Though with a name and hairdos like theirs, the Gurvitz brothers would have most likely failed the Aryan test (as I would have too).
As regards that behemoth railway cannon, Ken, that was a giant failure. It was only used once (shelling the Sevastopol Fortress) and
not one of its shells hit the target. A waste of (already constrained) resources and then subsequently mothballed. A lot of the so-called
Wunderwaffen were sheer crap, unworkable in practice. Regular artillery defeated Sevastopol in the end after a heroic fight of its defendants.
"... must be the increasing attempts to impress uve with all this German culture love. Reminds me of school kids sucking up to the popular guy."Nofi, you ole sourpuss, you must be joking!!! Increasing attempts?!
Much to my chagrin, neither body fluids of mine nor I were ever sucked up at school, not by my male and not by my female co-students (among which sexy Nazi-women were deplorably non-existent, I would have otherwise offered free conversion services!). I was the odd, low pc-kid kid with the quick lip and scathing sarcasm who liked Deep Purple, Status Quo, Kiss, Ramones and Sweet when everyone else liked Genesis, Pink Floyd, Yes, ELP, Jethro Tull and Supertramp. And was regarded as too right by the lefties and too left by the righties.
And I sure do hope that you don't seriously equate a Tiger tank/Panzer VI with German culture!!!
The tank, btw, was a hasty attempt (beset with design and production problems) to regain lost tank superiority at the Ostfront after the T-34 had played havoc on the Panzer III and IV. But I can't help it if US aircraft carriers looked better than US tanks!!!
