Hi Dragan!

It seems to be impossible to find a picture of a Henschel King Tiger with both zimmerit and ambush camoflage. This because application of zimmerit ceased just as the ambush pattern was introduced. Were talking about two weeks of overlaping production here.

I was doing the same search a couple of years ago and came up with nothing.

Cheers
Janne

Hi Dragan

I scann the photos of the Phanter M-10 Ersatz that come in the concord book of the Battle of the Bulge

here they are

They describe the modifications that the german army made to convert the Panther in a M-10, its great to make a model!!!!

Thanks for the links but I know about the Operation. I was just wondering about the physical changes to the Panther/M10s. From what I can tell it's just a few sheets on the turret and a coat of paint plus stars.

Sorry for the mistake Shermies, :(

In the book The Battle of the Bulge, says that this Panther M-10 sufred this modifications:

In the rear they added a sheet metal structure to the hull and turret.

Between the false Us bumper codes are the XY markings intended to identify Panzer Brigade 150 to german traffic police.

Sheet metal mantlet cover added over the Panther´s mantlet in the hopes of creating the false impression of an american M10 tank destroyer

Changes to the Panther turret, especilly the substitution of a simple split hatch for the normal cupola. This was a source of compleint during training at Grafenwohr, as the crews felt it offered too little protection for the tank commander
