piekat Posted August 28, 2000 Share Posted August 28, 2000 Sometime in the past i've found a publication with info about a German equivalent to the Churchill AVRE. I remember it was built on the body of damaged heavy tank (Tigers i suppose) and fit with a huge short range mortar (or howitzer). It was introduced after Stalingrad to help german troops fighting in dense urban environnement. Less than 50 were produced. Was it used in western front and is there any possibility to see it in CM?

mg Posted August 28, 2000 Share Posted August 28, 2000 I think you're talking about the Sturmtiger and I think only 18 of those where ever built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindan Posted August 28, 2000 Share Posted August 28, 2000 mg is right. The weapon used on the Sturmtiger was a 38cm rocket launcher, a modified naval weapon. ------------------ visit lindan.panzershark.com member of the Combat Mission webring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piekat Posted August 28, 2000 Author Share Posted August 28, 2000 Thanks guys, i've now found back the info on a booklet from Collins / Jane's. It the Sturmmorser Tiger. It should be funny to see it in action. Hope so for CM2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
