Thumbnail image: Tiger 141 on a roadside

Description

Tiger "141" was relatively new when this photo was taken, and shows no signs of wear. The crew have attached a helmet and a spare track link to the smoke launcher bracket on the turret; Tigers of this era were not built with any storage for tracks. They have also attached equipment to the turret bin. The Feifel connector hoses can be seen on the rear deck and seem unusually dark in colour; possibly they are Dunkelgrau. But a later photo of this same tank shows it with light-coloured hoses.

A closeup photo of Tiger 141 was also taken here.

The photo research was largely the work of the old TIIF.DE team.
