Kerscher's Defence of Neuhauser Forest by David Pentland. Oberfeldwebel Albert Kerscher, commander of 2nd company 511 Heavy Tank Battalion aided by a Panzer IV, two Hetzers, a Kingtiger and a Pak gun, successfully defended against concerted Soviet air and armoured attacks, his action buying valuable time for the evacuation of German wounded from Pilau and scoring his 100th victory in the process. |
Tiger at the Gate, Berlin, 30th April 1945 by David Pentland. A Tiger I and PAK 40 anti tank gun of the Muncheberg Division, field a final defence of the capital in front of the Brandenburg Gate under the shattered remains of the famous Linden trees. The under-strength division had just been formed the previous month from a mixture of ad hoc units and various marks of tank. Despite this it put up a spirited fight until its final destruction in early May. |
Fire by David Pentland. Norrey en Bessin, Normandy, 11th July 1944. A 75mm PAK (anti-tank) gun of the 26th Panzer Grenadier Regiment engages Sherman tanks of the Canadian 1st Hussars in front of Norrey en Bessin. |
Pak40 Mounted on SPW Half-Track by Jason Askew. (P) The Pak 40 - a hard hitting 75mm German anti-tank gun-seen here mounted on an SPW for greater battlefield mobility was essentially a scaled up version of the PaK 38 debuted in Russia where it was needed to combat the newest Soviet tanks there. It was designed to fire the same low-capacity APCBC, HE and HL projectiles which had been standardized for usage in the long barreled KwK 40 tank guns. |
