I just stubled across a film about the D-Day landings…. A partiular Churchil Tank cought my eye. Did the Brits use Zimmerit, or what is the stuff on the turret sides? Does anyone know?
Cheers

2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY
Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.
So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.
We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.
Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.

Re: Zimmerit on Churchil Tanks?
Apparently it was tested post war but not adopted.
Wikipedia mentions "Appendix 'A' to 21 Army Group AFV Technical Report No. 26" as the source.
