Be close to their best TANK ever IMO of course.

Wayne is this the one that nailed Wittman? Great photos! I would be hard pressed to decide which Figarti tank is best, the Panther G and Jagdpanzer IV L70 are hard to beat IMO.

Read a story about the intensity of the Firefly's muzzle blast and how it shook other tanks. Those guys might not survive if it fires right there. Supposedly a Ferdinand held off a Soviet rifle platoon by waiting to fire until most of the troops were right in front of it and then shooting over their heads. The blast killed, wounded or just disoriented enough that it was able to withdraw.

Having seen a number of documentaries about the death of Wittmann I tend towards The Canadian claim, No 12 is just another Sherman Firefly IMO.
