Dicker Max



This is an illustration of the German Panzerjäger: Dicker Max. In 1941, the project of creating a heavy self-propelled gun was ordered for the purpose of tackling fortified bunkers. Two prototypes were built based on the chassis of Panzer IV. This heavy Panzerjäger was equipped with a 10.5 cm high-performance canon but production was stopped due to changes of requirements. For the 2 prototypes, one was destroyed during ammunition explosion, the other was sent back to Germany after considerable success against Russian T-34 tanks.
