Well, a 128mm flak shell weighs about 26 kilos, so I'd guess that's pretty close. Of course you have to add the weight of a charge, as it was a 2 part round.

Hmm..and as the PaK shell would not have very much explosive in it like the flak shell, it would be heavier.... closer to 35 kilos perhaps. Ouch. :)

The pic brings back fond memories of trips to Aberdeen -- I could pitch a tent in that field and stay there for days, just going over the afv's. :cool: The last time I was there it was about ten below with the wind chill, but the resulting sore throat was worth it.

I remember standing right next to that monster and being dawrfed by it -- very impressive.

Status: offline 		Friends,

No need to be jealous -- I am just lucky to be fairly close to MD. and have a sister who lives an hour away from the base. I first went there in '83 and took a few rolls worth of pic's of the tanks, guns, etc. but have lost the pictures over time :(

The museum is very convenient to DC, Baltimore and Philly, and it's really worth the trip. Dozens of afv's from many countires/eras, a German railway gun, all kinds of artilley pieces (including a massive dual 128 AA gun) and an excellent indoor musuem with small arms, mortars, panzerfausts, etc. And I believe, if memory serves me, it's free.

Happy hunting to all.

That was an exceptional Jagdpanther.In my experience though,I take a platoon of Jagdpanthers and a platoon of Jagdtigers and I will still be fighting with the JP's long after the JT's are destroyed by a T-34,or a ATR,or a rifle squad,or a farmer with a rock...:rolleyes:.The bigger they are,the harder they fall...(sigh):D

Status: offline 		Jess,

That's it!! I'd like to have that sucker in the back yard. Thanks for the picture.

As for snipers versus Tigers -- the Tigers have gotten their cosmic revenge on me by having dive bombers single out my snipers for special attention. Oh, those eagle-eyed Stuka pilots, spotting heavily camo'ed concealment experts from 10,000 feet! (Of course, that was in the original SP.)
