This is not "a" karl thor,its "the" karl thor, 6 hoter model were build but eatch one was named differently.

I have founded that 7 of these guns are made (6 with names:"Ziu", "Thor", "Eva", "Adam", "Odin","Loki" and one without name)

correct but, witch one is it. Chose wisely!
.....

I'm gonna give you all hints to this one:
the 6 names you listed are all from gods but, what is the hidden one? (the one without the name)
obviously German religion
whoever gets it right wins and gets 5 pts

The 540mm barrel were completed in February 1943 and the vehicles re-armed with this smaller calibre mortar, were named Gerät 041 (the earlier vehicles were named Gerät 040).

The advantages of the new calibre were longer range (up to 10,000 metres compared to 4,000 metres for the 600mm Gerät 040) and a higher initial velocity of the shell.

Only the mortars no. V "Loki" and No. III "Thor" were finally fitted with 540mm calibre barrels.

only came across it now. after 25 years of browsing [tho not so much machines as methods of war]

[Zeke Wolff]

It´s a fake M10. During the Ardennes Offensive the Germans modified a small number of Panther Ausf. G´s to look like American M10´s by welding steel plates to the turrets and hulls of their Panthers. The Commanders cupola were removed and other smaller things as well. At close range they didnt fool anyone, except for the very untrained soldier, but at longer range they did look like the real thing.

Unfortunately for the Germans, most of these fake M10´s were recognized were what they were and were knocked out.

Thanks Zeke

I wondered what the purpose was but i can see now .. fake m10's
waste of time really.
One glimps of tracks/bogies and poof goes the illusion. The panther/tiger torsion bogey system is unmistakable.. and obvious to any soldier with eyes in his head.

Crap i just realised that after x hours playing red tide and more on forums today is now yesterday.
At this rate ill be dead before i know it. Sniper Kuznetsov [] awaiting orders comrade colonel.

For the glory of father stalin hurahhhhhh
