RETAIL price... that's not even close to what we'll pay.


I bet it's close to the Panzer IV http://shop.aaftankmuseum.com/Produc...ductCode=56026 what, $750.00 USD? I know the JS2 was a lot more but that was a new release with new features.

Not as powerful as the Pak 42 but it'll be MUCH easier to battle with at Danville.

The Lang is more intimidating though.

Should it have two steel road wheels in the front on each side?

estimated cost is around $865, not too bad, i hope the AAF museum will have them cheaper than that.

Some of the late Jagdpanzer IV's had those steel road wheels at the first station, just like the 3 return wheels and the vertical exhaust stacks were late features, so not all of them. The Lang (using the same gun as the Panther tank) was the most produced version... 930 to 940 from August 1944 to April 1945.
