Panzer-Mech
 

Looking for new panzer info I stumbled on this, my first thought was they made a panzer mech !

Apparently it was a mine-clearing panzer, 80 mm under armor and armored feet/tracks.

I stumbled across this a few weeks ago, its hypotical but the site does have some interesting stuff that was real.

these things can't be for real.....now we know where the Evil Empire Imperial Walker came from. The first picture I have seen, but the others must have been dreamed up from Star Wars, ltd..

That was the impression I got too. There is a link at the bottom of the page that will take you to the main page where there is a list of real vehicles and some that were just on the drawing board.

When I first seen that very pic years ago I thought it was some kind of floating cabin between two large wheels. Turns out its a big ugly 3-wheeled tractor [&:]

ya i have seen that before. looks like loose tracks around a single wheel. no clue on how the inside of the wheel works for traction etc. there is an rc in 1/35 on youtube.

This mech is from Kubinka.

Those wheels were based on ones used on some WWI artillery guns http://www.diggerhistory.info/images...8-pounder1.jpg

I notice that it does a nice job dispersing weight by having three pads on the ground, good for dispersing the blast also. Nice find 'Stuff', that lil 1/35 looks awesome.
