With the modern Leopard for comparison in the background, listen to the engines of these 1940's tanks surge past the camera. I have been close to all three of these "types" and was surprised how small they seemed when compared to modern day behemouths! Another nice video for camo schemes and modelling details: YouTube link Tom |

Yes it was, if I win a billion dollars I'd buy or make a PZKW II for my garage. |

Great find Tom! The Stug and Pz III are a lot quieter than the MkIV. It almost sounds like they've replaced the gas engine in the MkIV with a Diesel engine? |

Thanks. Yes, they might have. Knowing these guys, it's more likely as close to original specs as possible. |

Very cool. Is the panzer allowed to display the Africa Korps swastika because it is part of a museum collection? |

It was interesting to see the respective heights as compared to the modern Leopard. What was the small tracked vehicle the was next to the STUG III at the start? |

All that clanking reminds me of the sound the M60A3s used to make. |

Neat video – loved all that kit on the StuG (and how the jerry can fell off) Yes – those WWII medium tanks were not so big! Although that is a relative thing if you are an infantryman |

A PZKW II Is smaller than my truck, if you look back long ago somewhere is a size chart of armor vehicals. I had it on my computer. |
