ENGINE COMPARTMENT

LATE ENGINE COMPARTMENT

I want to thank especially the Colonel Olmer and the Saumur Museum team for their great work and their kindness.

As a matter of fact, they gave me access to the most unknow  area of the late tiger : the engine compartment.

All the rares photos with engine compartements were taken in early tigers fitted with HL210 engine.

There was no documentation at all about the tigers fitted with HL 230 P45 engines.
