Knarf Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hello,For training GSFG used small vehicle models. Everybody knows this fact. Now I have found models of enemy vehicles in 1:1 size. Unfortunately in bad condition but very impressive so I left them where they are. You can see the German cross painted on the launcherChassis is a Soviet lorryFrank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knarf Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 This was a tracked Rocket launcherThe soviets used to build these models with any material they could get. Cassis of a Sov. vehicle and some metall and you have got a nice model.(Handmade)regards Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knarf Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hallo Christophe,I took these photos some weeks ago. The place I am not allowed to tell. Unfortunately some collectors would risk their live if they would go there. Other people would have the problem to find their bits and pieces. There are bombs, mines etc. everywhere. Normally I can visit all the places on my own. In this case some people accompanied me to make sure that I stay alive.The place is in Germany.Sorry for that answer but I hope that you can understand it.Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi Frank,I can fully understand. Nice green car BTW... Cheers.Ch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knarf Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 These nice green cars are very fast even in cross country. The drivers are very good. They will not give you the smallest chance to run away or to go near the place.Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
