Panzer II Luchs start up and drive - Militracks 2017

It is so cute... I must hug it.

[@gonun69]

Jingles viewer spoted. Go back to the salt mines! (It's my turn to hug it now)

[@joe125ful]

Yeah!

[@TheDiamondBladeHD]

Just go hug a real lynx

[@happymagicmasterson6474]

TheIhredpower I would be hugging a Russian tank

[@TheIhredpower]

No Russian tank was ever as cute as a Luchs.

[@Lofi.z34]

I'm blown away to see such an old tank running so well, and the speed it reached was beyond what I expected. Whoever takes care of this piece has earned my highest respect.

When the King Tiger breaks down. Kill them with cuteness.

[@bryanmartinez6600]

Dean Murphy I guess cuteness was pretty common

[@penguinfred4378]

It really isn't a matter of if it breaks down, more like when it breaks down

[@fabiana7157]

You people are so superficial in your research on the KT, it broke down so often because of crews. Experienced crews could drive it without any breakdown. But there weren't that many of those when the KT came into scene

[@deanmurphy7307]

@@fabiana7157 A broken gearbox wasn’t an inexperienced crew problem, it was a soft gearbox problem.

[@fabiana7157]

@@deanmurphy7307 Okay, let's not forget that the KT came out in '44. The Germans did have issues with supplies and the production was rushed and the slave labourers sabotaged the building of the tank as well (when making the pieces). In the beginning, there were issues, but like they did with the Panthers, they managed to solve some of those issues over time. It's still true that inexperienced crews forced the tank too much, they didn't know how to handle such heavy vehicles correctly and they broke. Russians testing the KT said that it broke every 15 km. A report from a German Panzer division said that around 50 KT were able to go 200 km in one day without breaking down once. The difference? Experienced Tiger drivers. It wasn't a tank that could be handled by just about anyone.

[@Krapfelapfen]

Wow, that is a rare vehicle. I did not know that there is still a functional one or even one left.

[@Italianstallion-v2f]

Thats just it, I think only like 2 were made and the project canceled.

[@iatsd]

If by "2" you mean "104" built then, yes, you're correct.

[@Italianstallion-v2f]

Wow, I never knew so many where made, I thought to project never fully happened and it was basically vapor ware.

Not Hardly! The SS runes were hard and angular, often describes as "double lightning-bolts." What you see on that rear fender are a pair of Towing hooks, for attaching tow cables.

[@SeanODea25]

Hauptman Walder We know what SS symbols look like. That's why we pointed out how the tow hooks looked somewhat like them. Thanks for the historical info though! :D
