Has anybody else heard of Jagdtigers with 88mm guns installed due to shortage of the 128mm?

I half remember hearing something like that. If you can find a source, by all means mention it. --DanielCD 18:17, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did it, or didn't it??

Quote" Not every Jagdtiger, however, enjoyed the luxury of mounting this formidable weapon. By the start of 1945, the 12.8 cm gun was in such short supply that Steyr-Daimler-Puch was forced to mount the 8.8cm L/71 KwK 43 gun...in the last 26 Jagdtigers completed"

German Tanks of World War 2 Dr. S. Hart and Dr. R. Hart ISBN1-897884-37-0

which quotes as it's source: National Records Archieves Administration, Washington D.C (captured German records, records of the Inspector General of Armed Forces)

I do however admit, and thus refrain from including this info..that I have never seen it anywhere else. If other references are available, I'd be curious as well.

I heard of only 4 to 5 to be equipped with the 88L/71, there was no lack of 128 mm guns but the carriage/internal mountings to hold the weapon. AFAIR it was no production Jagdtiger but the prototypes to be rearmed. --Denniss 16:38, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jagdtiger vs ISU-122

What's got the stronger gun in terms of AP - Jagdtiger or ISU-122?chubbychicken 03:39, 9 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ISU-122:Armor penetration at 1000 m at 0 degrees, BR-471: more than 150 mm

"Mechanical shock and explosion was often enough to knock-out enemy AFV without any armour penetration."

And there was also plenty of larger ISU-152 with the BR-540 AP projectile (weighing 48.9 kg and fired at 600 m/s. Mieciu K 21:20, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
