Hi all,

I am part of a Facebook tank group and one of the members posted these photos of King Tiger hulls being assembled in the factory. I thought there were cool and wanted to share them with you all here.

G'day Flippen

Great pics - thanks! You have to admire the strength of those brackets front and rear used to hold the 50 or so tonne hull while it was being flipped around.

Regards

Rob

Thank you Joseph Zrodlowski for posting that PDF! I was actually looking for that one but wasn't able to find it. Tons of good reference photos in there!
