Hello everyone,
this was posted on Yuri Pasholok’s blog – pretty interesting video overall, but the really interesting part starts at 6:40 – StuG III, followed by Panzer III and Panzer IV (and Kettenkraftrad :))

Kettenkraftrad 10/10 would buy
How were those used by the NSU anyway?
To support the front with a mobile Gulaschkanone for catering?
NSU is the manufacturer of the Kettenkrad :D
And btw, I have German oral exam tomorow so I have to work on my expression: KETTENKRAFTRAD KETTENKRAFTRAD KRANKENHAUS PANZERKAMPFWAGEN BRATWURST SAUERKRAUT.
I’d rather buy the StuG actually.
Fair enough Neckarsulm then, thought it was a part of an military organization like NVA or sth…that still does not explain why one would actually want to produce such a strange thing…
Well according to the Wikipedia entries it was used to mainly pull stuff around. Well..I think that could have been done well enough without that ridiculous front wheel, but meh. :D
You will fail, learn spelling ;) .
Where’s the problem? All words are written correctly
<3 dat kettenkrab :D
I shot the whole show with all the narration from the Oberstleutnant back then.
If you want to a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m2TMBVGiDI 39 minutes… have fun :)
Ok, the version without most of the german chit-chat is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-BNXwI_kJ4
11 minutes long…plain tank sounds…
Imagine putting the Pz.1C’s gun on a kettenkrad and having it for a T4 scout with pretty much no armor, but wicked top speed & epic camo rating….
I remember when my National Guard unit got their first tank for the armory (a M60A3), and the lowboy couldn’t make the turn off the main road. So we unloaded the tank and drove it the rest of the way. Problem? Since it was mid-July and around 100° F outside… fresh asphalt roadway…. we left a trench in the new road, especially when turning. We never got a second tank at the armory.
