How many of you guys getting the WS103 88mm Flak? (1 Viewer)

[Rob]

No , youve regained some credability their

Phew,that was close!

 

[fmethorst]

What? No lasers?

 

[noli-poli]

I am not. The 88 was always well known as a towed or unmounted equipment. From what I understand only a handfullof these were made. I still have to see a picture of this on documentary books or photos.

N-P

Here is a picture from the invasion of France. I would be more interested if it came in an early war scheme.

I want it precisely for the reason many of you don't: It is not a common version. How many manufacturers are gonna produce these? Not many if any more. Come on, you gotta pick this piece up.

 

[Capitolron]

Looks like it was made - huh !

Thanks for the pic, Frank. As always, your post is interesting, instructive and helpful.

Thanks from me as well for the reference picture, Frank. The sheer size of that vehicle seen in its real-life incarnation is somewhat awe-inspiring .

I love it when someone says it doesn't exist and then there it is...

Never say never. Especially absolutely never! It is an expensive piece is it not?

Maybe... but I am still waiting to see a photo of a Rammjäger.

Is this another photo of it?

 

[OzDigger]

Red, that's the heavier Sd Kfz 9 Halftrack aka Famo that weighed 18 t. The K & C version is based on the 12 t Sd Kfz 8 which had a smaller cab.

At some point this has to be embarrassing to the rivet counters among us !

 

[kilted vampire]

Red, cool pic where did you find it?

 

[Canadian Samurai]

There's several pics of this thing floating around the internet. But they're all early war, no one I've talked to has found reference of one in Normandy yet, though it is certainly quite possible.

Curiousity is the essence of intelligence, allows mind to grow up and gives people the chance to acquire more and more knowledge. We are lucky to have members like you in the forum.
