Swap tiger 1 mantlets?
Posted: Sun Mar 13, 2016 8:15 pm
Would anyone with the new tiger 131 be interested in swapping mantlets for the reinforced version?
Back in '42-'43 there were 50 mantlets made in the original design, without reinforcement. They were deemed inadequate, but were not replaced. Instead, they were mounted on production turrets in an order I have not quite understood. Tigers to the same units were equipped with both sorts of mantlets. If you are building an early tiger that had the reinforced mantlet, would you be interested in swapping?
EU only, for customs reasons.
