Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me please, how many of the 'Tetra,' fire extinguishers were on the exterior of the Tiger 1 and Stug IV? And how many were on the Sd.Kfz.251?

I've looked through my plans for the Tiger 1 and can only see one attached on the rear right above the engine deck. Likewise on the Stug IV which seems only to have one?

Thanks in advance!

There usually one More mount inside the hull/turret. I think by the loader Area. When there a fire Its always Our Loader rushed in action in the reports

Thanks. And only one (inside) on the Sd.kfz.251 also?

I think the 251D models had two. One on each side of the back of the hull. I think the C variant just had one.
