One of two Panzerjäger Renault R35(f) left behind close to Wijbosch, September 1944. Needless to say, the 506th Regiment Command post and Colonel Sink were not very impressed by it.

But it can always be an annoying problem

Indeed, but I guess with those Jagdpanthers roaming in the nearby area... It's still pretty impressive that they captured this vehicle fully operational; many 'veterans' broke down during the road march. 20 km/h max. speed was rather gentle tho 




Close to Seelow Heights. Tiger has an early chassis and what seems like a pre-1943 turret with a loader's MP port.
