eh, its probably killed more then the Karl Gerat

2021-01-07 18:08:03 UTC  

Yeah, but Karl was much cheaper and easier to produce

2021-01-07 18:08:20 UTC  

Even tho 16 where only build

2021-01-07 18:08:30 UTC  

Lobbed shells over the fucking Black Sea and destroyed a concrete ammo bunker

2021-01-07 18:08:39 UTC  

iirc

2021-01-07 18:08:58 UTC  

With 10 meter of penetration against concrete

2021-01-07 18:09:13 UTC  

How to say fuck you in german to the Russians in the Bunker, and the 6 tanks nearby

2021-01-07 18:09:20 UTC  

And 1000mm against steel

2021-01-07 18:09:34 UTC  

Yes

2021-01-07 18:18:06 UTC  

@ConstantColt058 dude look at what I've said I was quoting a crazy lib so calm down and get the full story before u go off on someone

2021-01-07 18:18:57 UTC  

That convo was a while ago

2021-01-07 19:05:53 UTC

2021-01-07 21:31:38 UTC  

I don't think i've seen this before

2021-01-07 21:32:49 UTC  

Its basically an T57, you probably know it from wot but with an bigger gun

2021-01-07 21:33:48 UTC  

ah i see

2021-01-07 21:34:12 UTC  

so the americans tried their hand at making their own Communist Refrigerator then

2021-01-07 21:43:19 UTC  

Im trying to figure out a crew for my tank thing, the abomination i posted here a while ago

2021-01-07 21:44:18 UTC  

currently i have 3-5 men for each gun and 2 in the hull

2021-01-07 21:44:46 UTC  

8-12 crewmembers

2021-01-08 02:36:31 UTC  

reminds me of a strumtiger (I hope I got that right)

2021-01-08 02:36:43 UTC  

that thing was scary

2021-01-08 02:37:28 UTC  

Sturmtiger didn’t have a huge crew iirc

2021-01-08 02:37:35 UTC  

Only like 5 people

2021-01-08 02:42:56 UTC  

yeah, but the fucking firepower of that thing

2021-01-08 02:44:05 UTC  

it was an assault gun

2021-01-08 02:44:10 UTC  

it shot rockets

2021-01-08 02:46:10 UTC  

was ment to shoot Britain from teh shore of France IIRC

2021-01-08 02:46:38 UTC  

I know it shot rockets, it could punch through 11 feet of concrete, the reason I was saying the above reminded me of it was what I though to be the stubby barrel in the umage above

2021-01-08 02:59:15 UTC  

I believe it was found to be too inaccurate to use against single things like bunkers

2021-01-08 03:00:17 UTC  

It did fuck up groups of things if it landed nearby them. Apparently it managed to hit near some stationary shermans and basically knocked out all of them

2021-01-08 03:22:21 UTC  

It was mainly used in the eastern front, noteable in the battle of warsaw, and was highly ineffecient due to only being able to hold 6 shells at a time

2021-01-08 03:23:22 UTC  

the Shturmtiger was frankly a waste of recources if you ask me

2021-01-08 03:24:01 UTC  

sure its a big gun, but all those materials coulda been used to produce more panzers, panthers, fix the tiger 2, better development into the Panzershrek to make it better than it already was

2021-01-08 03:25:11 UTC  

it was something that was highly impracticle, yet super cool, that being said, it was the helepolis of it's time, a highly expensive and highly specific tool that could work marvels if used right

2021-01-08 03:25:25 UTC  

but rarely ever did

2021-01-08 03:26:02 UTC  

most of Germanies Wonder Weapons were like that

2021-01-08 03:26:04 UTC  

oh, yeah, totally

2021-01-08 03:26:15 UTC  

used successfully about once

2021-01-08 03:26:37 UTC  

tho i will say, with stuff like the ME262, it propelled aircraft development further, as well as runway strategy

2021-01-08 03:28:07 UTC  

The Me262 had decent success. Obviously not enough to change the outcome of the war. But it DID manage to change the entirety of aerial warfare.
