Hello Guys, Just want to know if Zimmerit is ever applied to Henschel transmission Jagdtiger. Got the Cavalier zimmerit sheet for my DML Henschel Jagdtiger, and the information I got Track Link states that zimmerit was only applied to Porsche JgTiger. Any opinions?

What is wrong with the info from Track-Link?

Either way, what you were told was correct. Zimmerit was only applied to the Porsche version.

Cheers,

Sorry SS-74, I didn't mean to sound snappy, I was just wondering if there was a reason or not. I have no problems at all with going to other sources, damn, one should always try to do that!

My apoligies.

Cheers,
Linz

Hi Dave !
DEFINITELY NOT ON A HENSCHEL JT.
Oh - and as far as any reference by James Blackwell, you
can count on it being on the money.

Thanks Ralph and all of you. I am actually quite glad that I came across the Jagdtiger info on TL, otherwise would made a fool of myself by appling the Zimmerit on the Henschel JT. That was a close call.... #:-)
