I suppose if you find enove, i could make a suggestion. :)
collecting images of said jagdpanthers

There were 3 of at least 18 Jagdpanthers brought back from Germany including several that were finished onsite by the Germans under British supervision. They were up-armoured with 76 mm plate believed to have come from an armoured aircraft carrier deck. With 272 mm of upper and lower armour they were there to represent the newer Soviet heavy tank threat but otherwise were all operational until they were used up in munitions testing.
These up-armoured Jagdpanthers were used in testing out 6.5-inch HESH rounds in a similar way to the Tiger 2 tanks seen in previous posts. The Jagdpanthers had a further 3 inches of steel armour cemented to the front of them but despite this proved no match for the large HESH rounds demonstrating that a spaced layer was needed to make a vehicle immune to that ammunition type and that due to the direct contact between the outer and inner plate the shockwave was still able to propagate the armour.
We should get them in game. It would give proof as to how badly HESH performs in game.
I saw those posted else where for the British, interesting vehicles.
acc to the fb poster, they were brought to england and finished onsite. finished implies that they had been started before being transported to england. Basically thats my reasoning for why they are german origin. besides the fact that they wanted to better armour them to withstand the soviet IS-2 etc.
plus since there were 18 of them, it stands to reason the british wouldnt be building them, why would they?
for testing even the three here wouldve been enough, as is evident because they brought three to england. 18 seems more like a pre-production batch
I mean if british mains want it they can get it, but it would mean on the other hand that germany should get the challenger with the 130mm cannon because both are tanks modified by another nation (although like you wrote that is even contested for the Jagdpanther) and weren‘t in service
yep, treading on thin ice no matter how u look at it lol. honestly captured vehicles shouldn’t be in game at all
these will be perfect for british tech tree. premium or event vehicle if ive ever seen one.
these modifications were made for British testing so should go to Britain. Same logic as why Sweden has its tiger 2
Brits can get the one without a gun to match their firepower around those BRs
please go for something thats british. fight for fixing your own vehicles instead of taking whats not british. i think weve all had enough colonialism for one earth
cap
the british used these for tests. but they were not made for the british
British controlled factory, had them built for them, used only by them and unique design just for them. Tell me again how many captured vehicles Britain has in their tree? But not surprised Germany would claim something they never used. Just add it to the list I suppose.
Panzer Tracks mentiones the Uparmored Jagdpanthers.
eyyy i have that book
Or at least i was told such, currently looking through 9-3, dont know if he meant a different one.
funny.
ill call ur bluff because the source ur using, even it states that they were built by germans in germany and the british transported three out of 18 to england. tell me again how they built them in a british controlled factory?
btw, did you know the brits also forced the factory workers to built more standard panthers for testing?
but never for service.
dont know dont care.
captured vehicles shouldnt have a place in WT
Just add it to both trees like the challenger 130 aswell. If it only comes to the british tech tree than UK mains can’t complain if the challenger 130 only goes to germany
The uparmored jagdtiger wont be that great either way but still nice to see. Most likely a 6.7 tank and worse than the jagdtiger and ferdinant/elephant due to much worse hp/t with the add on armor and the bad panther reverse
ill reword it then. The modifications were made for the British to test things. this was done in a British controlled factory under British supervision
I didnt see it in 9-3, the person who told me looks again where he saw it.
