Default Video on 1943 battle of Kursk

Hi Guys,

here is my own version of early dawn attack by the Germans in early dawn 1943-the battle of Kusk. But according to historians and actural accounts. The Russians actually fired 12 minutes early at 4.30 am before the Germans. As a result, german lost 10% of its forces..


Have you say and the aim is to have fun........

Please enjoy.....

thanks guys, here is my answer for you. I have not sealed the top hull , I checked the water height first

The rh ideler wheel is from PANZER III. I did on purpose, to create something new but not too far out.[)]

I ran the track loose, and had my own ideler arm mod, as result...this was the most reliable run I never get from my tiger tank. No track throwing or anything. The KEY point here....have your idler arm reinforced.

The whole video editing was done in a matter of 1.5 hours...........


Cheers
