Jagdpanthers and Panthers mid-construction at a factory in Hannover.

There is a lot to see in this image, including 6 Jagdpanthers and three Panthers.

Between the rows of vehicles, we can see plenty of road wheels. In front of them are two transmissions, one of which is on a stand.

Closer, there are eight Maybach HL 230 V12 engines that powered the Panther and Jagdpanther.

A ninth engine can be seen installed in the Panther on the right, and the stack of pallets near the bottom of the image suggests others are fitted with engines too.

Looking through the gun opening in the closest Jagdpanther, we can just see some torsion bars, the top of the transmission and the drive shaft coming from the engine at the rear.

At the back, the engine cooling fans are fitted.

Can you spot anything's else?

Wildlife hides in the gnarled thickets of mangrove. Everything about this place feels prehistoric. The turns become more and more hairpin, deceiving and disorienting you, as turtles and alligators eye you wearily before slipping beneath the murky water. Nearly eight miles up the northwest fork of the river, a weathered, wooden boathouse juts out into the dark water: the first sign of human existence seen for miles. Alongside it is a dock that leads through a bamboo thicket into what was once the heart of wild Florida: Trapper Nelson’s homestead, zoo and jungle garden. The biggest attraction, though, was Trapper himself. Known as Tarzan of the Loxahatchee, he’d wrestle alligators, trap wildcats, and dazzle guests with his infallible good looks and stories of the wild. He was a man who lived witho...

During the Vietnam War, one of the most dangerous jobs was undertaken by a select few known as "tunnel rats." These unsung heroes were American, Australian, and New Zealand soldiers specially trained as combat engineers, who crawled through Viet Cong underground tunnels to perform perilous covert search and destroy missions.⁠ ⁠ Tunnel rats gently prodded for armed mines in order to disarm them — and prayed that they survived with both their legs intact. Most men were volunteers and tended to be of smaller stature, making it easier for them to maneuver through the cramped subterranean spaces Don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comment section below.

A Waffen SS soldier belonging to "Der Füger" SS Division walks ammo up to the front lines during the invasion of France during May, 1940. The Waffen SS played a crucial role in the invasion of France, they were the spearhead of the infantry. The Waffen-SS quickly gained themselves a reputation for being ruthless and effective killers on the battlefield. Civilians and combatants alike for their effectiveness and brutality. They used this fear as a weapon and manipulation tool convincing many that the Germans were the right nation and they had better futures there. This fear also gave them great control over the population and allowed them to do whatever they wanted which included rape, murder, and executions. Since they were the most fit and capable soldiers in the entire Wehrmacht the were used as the poster-boy for the German army which gave them even more of a false ego. Many of their songs like "SS Marschiet in Feindesland" glorified their brutal a...
