Description
Used a Sherman wreck for the destroyed vehicle, courtesy of On Target. The Elefant is a rendo item, and it is sweet. Merllina brought it out of mothballs in order to get a little payback on the sorry goober who shot her Tiger in the butt, putting an 88 AP round through his starboard side applique armor. I'm sure it didn't do much for the radio operator/hull gunner's day. And don't forget that this is for Panzer Girls. The Sherman's entire crew was out catching lunch when the Elefant in the room showed up.

Hm... if they were out catching lunch, big surprise when they come back and see Sherman with a clean 88 mm. entry hole and a big exit hole! Catching lunch? I wonder what they were trying to catch? At least they weren't using the Sherman to hunt. That's a big NO-NO! Cool! Keep up the good work! And thanks for the tip about the Elephant! :-)

They asked a veteran what he thought about the armor of a Sherman. Well the 88 entered at the right and exited through the left side it burst outside.

Yeah, a Sherman was not exactly known for its ability to prevent penetration. An 88 could take out pretty much anything for much of the war. When the Tiger came out, it was said that if it could see you, it could hit you, and if it hit you . . . . Let's just say that it didn't end well for the target. An old vet I met in Germany told me of an encounter between a lone Tiger in a wood line and a company of Shermans. When the smoke cleared, there was only a single Sherman limping off the field
