E-100 was a real project, jagdpanzer E-100 wasn't planned and just a 'what if'. Mr Hilary Doyle, the expert on German tanks labelled this one as a fake. The build is great tho and I love the looks of it, but I just want to say that it can go beside your UFO ;) and that the internet isn't always right.

Doyle isn't the 'expert' many claim he is. He was caught flat out making shit up about German night vision being useless.

Okay, didn't know that. But I still don't believe that jagdpanzer E-100 was a real concept.

@NakiriX1 7 жыл бұрын

the E-100 Chassis has been made but if they would have done the turret (the planned turret) it would have been to heavy and the chassis would break down so they decidet to plan another project wich also was a failure because the war already enden when it was supposed to be reay to fight

since the E100 was a real project, converting it to a tankdestroyer wouldn't have been a big challenge, it would haven been the same concept they used to make cheaper versions, with compareable effectiveness, with every chassis.

Hi Andy, I enjoyed the build of the E100 Krokodil, I'm not really a fan of 'paper' tanks, but could see myself building either of these tanks, it was really good to see the two track pieces, I myself have a couple of WWII German helmets. Cheers mate, Les

Great video. I have built this kit also, and it went together without any problems. As form the tracks, I also did not care too much for the rubber tracks. trumpeter does offer individual link-n-length racks for this kit, as well as, the E-100. Bought a set and used those instead - much better detail.

Mr. Andy your a nut. That statement about making a workout video using the track sections was funny. But seriously, besides making great assembly vid's I like the fact that you give a bit of a history lesson as well. For instance I'm very familiar with the Jag (Hunter) version of the Panther, but I never heard of the Krokodil, one of the reasons I viewed this vid. Thanks for the lesson.

If such design were true, it would make more sense to put the fighting compartment in the back and the engine in the front. Otherwise the unbalanced weight of the gun would likely break the suspension.

Even a Jadgtiger style of this take would be more practical. If you are wondering, yes the one in game uses the 170mm gun like the one shown in the video.

@tyler_bt3326 6 жыл бұрын

DatOneAsianKid if you managed to get flanked in a tank destroyer, you weren't doing your job right. Jagdpanther and Jadgtiger weren't designed for close combat. The idea was you camouflage, sit about 500 to 1000m away with a big fuck off gun and shoot anything that moves. The armour was only there for when you took fire after you place your first shot, revealing your location. If you're close enough that there's a risk of getting flanked you've already failed your job

that track is interesting, i wonder why the King Tiger had so many of its side panels removed, maybe they were they were too heavy to lift back on after replacing track links, so the crew could fed up with them and left then on the ground, it would interesting to know how thick the steel was, maybe 10mm or more.
