Actually a mine detenator , "MINENRÄUMER" , but I like to call it the "mine stomper". A 3-wheeled tractor the Germans used on the Eastern Front at Kursk in 1943 , to detenate land-mines.
* I had a 1/35 scale Polish model kit of this unusual exotic vehicle.
* Imagine this in 1:18 , utterly unrealistic by any sense.

All of those vehicles on that one page are absolutely, incredibly, a**-ugly. I LOVE THEM!!!!
Man, one of those would be righteous in 1/18, because of all the sci-fi conversion potential. Especially, that big nasty-looking Krupp's truck. Nice, very nice.

Sometimes, the mind needs a shovel, rather than a pencil and paper, to express itself.

there were some sci fi wehrmacht armoured fighting suits made in 1/20 scale. I can't remember the name of the line but i see them on ebay from time to time. They represent the wehrmacht of the future. This Waffenträgerschreitpanzer would fit in nicely with those. Rather fanciful but imaginative.
i never met an airplane i didn't like...
