1944 German Panzerschreck (88mm Rocket Launcher) – Normandy Camouflage- Replica
The Panzerschreck development was initially based on the American “bazooka”, captured during the Tunisian campaign, November 1942.The Panzerschreck was larger and heavier than its American counterpart – the Panzerschreck had an 88 mm calibre, compared to the 60 mm calibre of the bazooka – which meant that it could penetrate thicker armour.
This example from our collection has been over sprayed with the 3 colour camouflage paint scheme.The blast shield has been removed for ease of use in the hedgerows of the ‘Normandy Bocage’.
