Hi. Been looking through information on the Net. under the heading of 'German railway guns' and ran across an interesting design picture of a proposed unit. A K5 mounted on two King Tiger tanks! Talk about the ultimate SP artillery piece! This sounds like something designed by Dr. F. Porsche doesn't it.

Take care, sgirty

Now, in my opinion, one of these new 'big guns' on a couple of MAUS's would be a real kink-in-the-pants!

You kow I was thinking of doing this combo, maybe I'll buy the Trupeter K5 and sacrifise the Dml kit to a fun "What if". STUG

I was wondering, after reading this thread and the other LONG one on the k5s, if anybody was thinking of making a Guns of Navarone dio? Seems that two DML kits, being less expensive and less perfect, could do that scene justice.
