Jagdtiger breech block

Hi fellas.

I am trying to find with not much luck so far a decent perhaps exploded view drawing of the Jagdtiger breech block particularly the sliding block / ejection lever, I have a blurry picture that seems to show it fitting into two slots on the right hand side of the breech?
I already have the technical and operational histories from Devey and the heavy Jagdpanzer recomended by Per, thanks again.

Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks Paul

Hi Paul

Here's one of Bovingtons Jagdtiger. Not sure if it shows what you need, but if you want a full size copy, I can email it to you.

Hi Mick.

Brilliant photo mate thank you now if I could just turn it slightly to the right and see more of the lever

, yes please a picture would be great to pjtigerman@aol.com
Don't suppose you took a few more did you by any chance?
Thanks again Paul

I'll send you all I've got.

P.S. Your animatronic commander is first class. It will be a shame to hide it in a turret

Mick

P.P.S sorry, won't be tonight cos I'm at work

Hi Mick.

Thank you very much, but I cannot take credit for the animatronic commander that is Paul Wills

Cheers Paul Morris

Hi Paul,

Panzerwrecks 6 ,pp 28 and 29. Bit grainy but they are pukka "Exploded" views.

Also "Tigers 1 and II and their Variants" Spielberger/Doyle, pp 156-159 and Appendix K

Worth writing to the TM as the may have unpublished photos taken of the JT interior. Their fees for 10x8 photo prints are quite reasonable and you are supporting a good cause too.

cheers, Fabrice

Paul.
Found another!
Panzerwrecks Vol 12 p7, nice and crisp but the handle is missing.

cheers. Fabrice
