Thumbnail image: Shipping a retired Tiger

Description

This Tiger comprises parts retired from service with s.Pz.Abt.503 : the hull of "123" and the turret of "233". It is apparently being shipped back to Germany from the Mariupol repair workshop that assembled it. Later we will see it at Paderborn.

The gouge in the mantlet identifies the turret as that of Tiger 233. Whitewash patterns on the lower nose match the hull of Tiger 123.

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