The 'reinforcements' you refer to, inside the roof, are actually the 'tracks' for the manual loading cranes that lifted the massive rocket ammunition from the racks and into the breach of the launcher - with the assistance of a loading trestle [missing].

I have also been there back in 1986. Then I went to the German Armor school as a guest of them while I was an instructor on the M1/M1A1 tank in Vilseck, Germany. Very nice museum indeed.

What an awesome opportunity. Seeing this stuff in person, when you spend so many hours looking at them as scale models, gives you such an appreciation for how menacing they would be, heading in your direction. Not to mention, loads of admiration, for these soldiers ( regardless of the country ), and the life they lived and/or lost, while occupying these cramped quarters

Thanks for sharing. I prefer Tamiya kits, having someone say this is better than Tamiya makes it all the more interesting to build it. I'm on a tight budget I hope it's decently price that I can afford it. Can't wait when you tell us it's on the shelf. I used to use only Model Master's paint was quite disappointed when it was discontinued. I now use Tamiya paints.

Your timing with this video was perfect for me Andy, I'm currently building one. Do you know if it was actually found in the field in this colour, or was that just done by the museum? In some places you can see the three tone camouflage underneath, however I'm curious to know weather it was repainted in just dunklegelb when it was converted to a sturm.

@jacobakana5649
@jacobakana5649 2 жыл бұрын
The ammunition was stored more or less next to the loading rack so that a shell just had to be lowered a few feet onto some rollers, and then shoved into the breech. To clarify, the one in the video is missing it’s loading rack, it would be where Andy is standing at the beginning.
@wwiiinplastic4712
@wwiiinplastic4712 2 жыл бұрын
To add to Mr Akana's reply, additional ammo was carried in a vehicle adapted for the purpose and reloaded using the small crane assembly atop the Sturmtiger. There was, after all, only so much room in the casemate and those rounds are very large.
@brinsonharris9816
@brinsonharris9816 Жыл бұрын
The racks carried 12 rounds, but I’ve read they usually also set out with a round in the breech and another in the loading tray for a max of 14 rounds. The crane and cable look like there was still a lot of heavy lifting by the crew to get ready for combat and to fire and reload the gun, and several were abandoned intact after expending the 14 rounds. Either no fuel, infamous Tiger breakdowns or the crew knew there would be no resupply. I think the other surviving Sturmtiger is in the Russian Kubinka armor museum, which also has an incomplete Maus. Like the Jagdtiger, it had 2 loaders. Must have been very cramped with those huge rounds.

King Tiger is taller than a Leopard 2, so they are higher, maybe not longer. However a King Tiger looks a lot more massive than a modern tank like Abrams or Leopard just because you can clearly see the sheer thickness of the armor.

Have to admit it's kind of heartbreaking to look at details that simply cannot be accurately reproduced in scale models. The torch cuts on the frontal armor, easy. The welds not so much. On models that have any at all they look like nicely "stacked nickels" but here look more like a tangle of spaghetti. And those circular locking pins welded in are never seen molded in kits afaik, and trying to scratch them...

Thanks for the close up of the sturmtiger, I am a bit disappointed in your amount of knowledge you had regarding the vehicle but I will assume that you didnt know in advance that you would have the opportunity to make a video on this particular vehicle. Also, the primary function of a modeller is to mimic reality. Thus you could be a modeller without really knowing the subject technically. Unfortunately modellers tend to be technically minded and knowing functions and features can help to make more realistic models. As a show and tell video goes, this one tends more towards the showing. I could spot most of your mistakes and omission fortunately so that I could get some value from the footage. I just wonder what more you could have taken footage of had you not been overwhelmed by the interior like you were.

@@elucidator2 Not sure how many of Andy's videos you have watched but he does not, as a general rule, have in-depth knowledge of all the subjects he reviews. Remember, he owns a hobby shop that sells all kinds of models, not just military subjects. Besides, more casual modelers won't care and experienced modelers will have that knowledge to start. Remember, this is not the Chieftain channel, where they have regular access to the vehicles they review, as well as extensive reference libraries 👍
