Outstanding video and presentation. Great rare footage of the interior, close up exterior detail and start up and running of the Hetzer engine.

These short video ''tours'' are a great idea. Thanks Karl and Jason. 🙂

Finally! A Jagdpanzer 38 with the proper engine! Fantastic restoration work and I love the inclusion of black "sniper bait" rectangles.

Amazing! This machines were produced somewhere just in front of my window in Prague.

These videos highlighting individual vehicles are so good.

Back in the 80s I knew a guy who owned a G-13. At first he kept it at a local museum. Later he found permanent housing for it and only brought it out for reenactments. BTW this one is beautifully restored.

"Fully operational" "This can still penetrate a T-34" .... I asume almost fully operational. Would be bad ass night at the museum if the collection was fully operational! :D

Great video guys and those German soldiers must of gone deaf with the noise from that engine.

One of my favorites, the Hetzer. Beautiful example.

The danger was tanky and the crew suffered a little, but it was a rolling terror, its cannon was very advantageous, a very dangerous "small", that engine at the beginning of the video, by God!!, It's all that's right, I wish that That symphony will be left to us for a few more minutes 🖤🙌, And the restoration work is more than impressive! It is sublime!
👏

Thats awesome! Im sure i am not the only one that would love vids like these for your other running vehicles!

[GBurgosFernandez]

I made a model of this anti-tank. It was one of the best I ever made. How many memories!

[michaelrieber]

I like the inside overview of the tank. Always wondered on the amount of room noise and overall crew “comfort”. Now I have an idea on this model. Keep up the good work

[cpawp]

I love the engine sound, original engine, czech engine, makes the old 'car' (not a tank) come alive ...

[andrewsteele]

I am loving these video's keep them coming, cheers

Was lucky enough to get a ride in this at Tankfest a couple years ago. It wasn’t coping well with the heat and was doing limited runs. We held onto our tickets for half the day and right when we were considering trading them for something else, i heard it start up. Luckily i was standing about 2m away from Rob at the time and managed to get on the next run. Highlight of the weekend, as it’s one of the few tanks you rode in, rather than on top of.

Impressive looking beast!
Definitely helped having this example in Swiss service to keep it well maintained until it was retired and restored.

7.8 litre petrol engine. Man I’m glad I’m not feeding it. Thanks for the video fellas 👍🇦🇺
