It must have taken you forever to post all of those pictures. What an effort! I think there were maybe only two or three I'd ever seen before. Very much appreciated! Thanks!

[normandy]

These pictures I've used for reference on past and future custom projects
and have been posted over the last five years. Each time a picture was added
I hit edit, that way it could be placed anywhere in the thread but that also keeps
the topic from moving.
Glad you like the pics.

Love that Puma & great pics

Gepanzerter Munitionsschlepper

The History
In January 1943 the lesser known company “Weserhutte” was asked to design an armoured ammunition carrier (VK 501) for the Werhmacht. It was planned that mass production should start in 1944, however conflicting demand for resources on the German industrial war machine caused this to be delayed.

Designed to have a weigh 6 tons, it utilised the proven 6-Cylinder Maybach HL42 providing 100HP and a speed of 65 Kilometres per hour, transverse mounted. The armour thickness was specified at 20 millimetres, and was capable of stopping a 7.62 round.

The payload capacity was 1,000 kilograms providing a range of options:
10 Boxes (1500 rounds) of 7.62mm Ammunition
32 Boxes (96 rounds) of 8cm Mortar Rounds
15 boxes (45 Rounds) of 7.5cm s.IG Ammunitions
22 Rounds of 15cm s.IG Ammunition

Production was approved late 1943 for: 6000 vehicles for the infantry, and 2000 for the artillery.
