Definitely would be popular at the Russian front, everyone following it at about 400 feet keeping warm!

Nice concept and build  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:  and it plays into the Luft 46/Wehrmacht 46/Kreigsmarine 46 genre in assuming that every modern weapon in the inventory like turbine driven armor (M1A1) had a Reichs origin!

you wouldnt want any friendly panzer grenadiers or volksturm trying to hide behind it for cover, even with the turbines at idle....................
