March '23 Showcase: Ferdinand early pattern
Added 2023-03-26 19:58:38 +0000 UTCThis is one of 3 track patterns we can observe on the Ferdinand and some of its Variants as well as the Tiger P during Training with s.Pz.503. Its main feature is a newly produced link without guide horn. The link with guide horn is still the same used for the R&D patterns. While this is the earliest Pattern for the Ferdinand, the mid and late type are indtruduced very fluend and early! More about this in the related showcases.
Use this track pattern for your early Ferdinand build up until Kursk. Early s.Pz.Jg.Abt. 654 or the "Bandauslauf" (last Ferdinand to leave the factory).
It would also be a safe bet for the Rammtiger, that never existed.
Tiger P - it can used for the troup training vehicle.
Don't use it for Bergetiger (P).
The link without guide horn can further be used to make the R&D track pattern 1.
Most of the links preserved on the Ferdinand in Moscow/ Kubnika are of this pattern, with a few later ones mixed in.
The design is based on factory drawings by Porsche and adjusted for the best possible fit in 1/35th scale. It is a rework of my October '21 release aimed towards future-proofing and updetailing.
Available to Standard-Tier Members in March '23 as well as still-active October '21 backers.
