That's basically how mine looks!

10 years ago when I ran with the MACV group they allowed the Sturmtiger to run as an IFV... being that it had 150MM of frontal armor (80MM or more qualifies for a heavy) simply to open up the tanks on the battlefield. I mean, at the time there was only the WECOHE Jagdtiger and the IMAI Elefant to use as such and you had to have deep pockets for either.

But I guess the Sturmtigers reload time and the fact it's a rocket disqualifies it, then should too the 105 Sherman as it COULD be used against armor, but realistically now... really? I've read the ballistic tests of what a 105 shell can do. LOL

BTW... I wouldn't send a Hummel out as a battle tank! LOL
