1/144 Jagdpanzer JgPz E-100 "Krokodil" - CGD

Available in Camouflaged, Dunkelgelb or unpainted.

This model has six parts: chassis (pre-assembled with tracks), gun (detached for shipping), two mid section track covers and two rear section track covers (which are removable).

Jagd Panzer E 100 "Krokodil" - In 1945, the German war machine initiated a development program (Entwicklung, or E) aimed at categorizing the development of AFVs in 5, 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100 ton weight brackets.

The E 100 was the heaviest in the series and was developed at the same time as the Porsche Maus. Only the chassis of the prototype was discovered after the war which was evaluated by the British Army and then scrapped.

If the development of the E 100 had continued, a tank destroyer version that will probably carried a 170mm main gun on a fixed superstructure based on the E 100 chassis will follow.

1/144 German JgPz E 75 (Jagd Panther II) - CGD

1/144 German JgPz E 75 (Jagd Panther II) - CGD

This is a new 1:144 German JgPz E 75 (Jagd Panther II) from the new Wargame Armour series of CGD. This item is fully painted in the 3 Colour Disruptive Camouflage scheme, or dunkelgelb and is  Weathered with no assembling required.

E 75 standard tank - In 1945, the German war machine initiated a development program (Entwicklung, or E) aimed at categorizing the development of AFVs in 5, 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100 ton weight brackets. The E 75 was designed to be between 75 to 100 ton and as a standard tank replacing the King Tiger and Jagdtiger. The tank was almost identical to the King Tiger in size but would be easier, cheaper and quicker to produce than the previous designs.

The E 75 shared a lot of components with the E 50 and has the same hull design and dimension. The E 50 has more space inside through using thinner rolled armour plate and hence lighter weight.

To handle the additional weight, the E 75 has an additional suspension unit with 2 more road wheels on each side. The E 75 used E 50's combat track as transport track and another wider track as combat track.

This tank is modelled after a speculative drawing showing a Jagdpanzer developed from the E 75 chassis with an 128mm KwK 44. The gun compartment is in the forward postion of the chassis similar to Jagdpanther. This layout provides a roomier crew compartment than the JgPz E 50 ( and full access of the engine compartment during servicing. The drawback is the overall length of the tank is very much increased with the ever larger gun installed. Maneuvering in tight street corners will be very difficult

1/144 E-50 'Krokodil' Jagdpanzer (Panzer '46) - by CGD

1/144 E-50 'Krokodil' Jagdpanzer (Panzer '46) - by CGD 

Modelled after a speculative drawing showing a Jagdpanzer developed from the E50 chassis. The gun compartment is in the aft position of the chassis similar to Elefant.

This design has the advantage of reducing the overall length of the vehicle which is important as Germans tried to mount bigger and bigger guns onto vehicles. This also meant that the engine of the vehicle would have to be placed in the front or middle part of the vehicle.

But unlike the Elefant which had a relatively vertical front armour plate on the superstructure, the speculative drawing shows a slanting armour plate following the angle of the front chassis. This covers up almost half of the location of the engine and servicing such vehicle would be very difficult.
This model try to reduce the seating area of the driver as much as possible to allow more space to service the engine but still most part of the engine are being covered up. The driver and the radio operator would be very uncomfortable sitting in their position.

The speculative drawing also shows exhaust pipes at the rear of the chassis. This design is also flawed because as the engine is now seated in the middle, ducting will have to be constructed to channel the exhaust back to the rear passing the crew compartment. If the ducting were inside the compartment, any leakage will suffocate the crews inside.
