They used the Henschel to devastating effect (I think it was the first time they used them ). Apparently it was an AWESOME anti - tank platform. I'm not sure how many were manufactured, but the modified Stukas stayed on in the anti - tank role for most of the rest of the war, so maybe they didn't have enough of the Henschels

The main thrust of the article, the lack of originality in the German attack plan, was right on the money. I can't think of another operational concept that put Schwerpunkten at the bases of a salient for a frontal attack

I think the produced fewer than 900 Hs-129s during the war. It had some problems but, under powering being one but it was an effective tank killer.

[Mudboy Slim]

Those two are exactly my two primary pet peeves...we've got the opportunity to make it right in the next 3.5 years, though...MUD
