Hi all, can someone tell me if there is any book in which the inner distribicion of Panzer III is seen with scale drawings, such as the Walter j Spielberger book of the panther V, thank you all.

Hi Juan. The "Panzer Tracts 3" series on the Panzer III have photographs of the internals of various tanks but don't include any scale drawings for the internal parts.

I don't recall seeing any scale drawings for the inside details in any of my Panzer III books.

Verlinden make/made a Panzer III interior detail kit, as used here:

where the author seems to say that he has worked from drawings and photographs of the sectioned Bovington Ausf N tank.

The Achtung Panzer No 2 has some small interior photos. Better is the Model Art AFV Super Detail Photo Book Vol 6 which has quite few interior photos of turret and fighting compartment but neither has drawings.

The Trojca book has a number of original manufacturers engineering drawings which show the layout of the turret interior and of the electrical system in the hull but no general arrangement drawings of the interior layout. The drawings cover a number of fittings in detail, particularly of the armaments, hatches, vision ports, cupola etc but nothing of the layout of the hull interior. I've not seen any drawings of the interior as a whole. Sorry - photos are your best bet.

Good luck - looking forward to seeing your model pictures.

Thanks for the pm - thought I'd answer here so all can see.

Best regards

Stephen
