    Sorry. Although I don't buy this, the manual says the 57mm recoilless HEAT round penetrates 11".
    Since my questions seem not to generate alot of excitment, I will turn it over to FramerT as the last poster instead....
    To you Tom.

    Well then, an easy one to keep the quiz going:

    List at least 6 beasts of prey that were used to (nick)name tanks in WW2.

    Tiger, Panther, Lynx (luchs), Puma (not per se a "tank" but close), Leopard (5cm turret on the Lynx version), Alligator (US LVT 5(a)).

    Some animal names that don't meet the requirements:
    Wolverine (not a beast of prey)
    Hellcat (fictional)
    Elephant (not a beast of prey)
    Rhinocerous (not a beast of prey)
    Cricket (german..Grille) (insect)
    Mouse (maus) (not a beast of prey)
    Crow (Marder) (bird)
    Wasp (insect)
    Hornet (insect)
    Tortitse (sp) (not a beast of prey)
    Grasshopper (insect)
    Weasel (not a beast of prey, not a "tank")
    Bison (not a beast of prey)

    The Leopard was a Pz IIL Lynx with a modified Puma turret installed on it. Only a few were made.

    Why are insects no beasts of prey? I would deem wasp and hornet right.

    You could also have mentioned the Grizzly (Canadian Sherman), the Brummbär and the Crocodile. The wolverine is also a beast of prey. Further, Marder does not mean crow, but marten.

    It's T. A.'s turn again.
