Greetings, all.

This is my first time posting and this post here was indeed a treat. Quite
a find and also a Jagdtiger to boot! Though, given some recent photo
reference books on WWII armor and the vehicles from that era which still
survive ( such as the M36 TD ) in the Bosnian arena, it doesn't surprise me
that such things are still about, hidden away or actually in the field. I
hope that you would consider posting photographs sometime in the future.

I'm afraid I can't help much on the acquisition of actual parts. I will
look into the manual though...I may have a source there. But, if you
haven't the book, look up Ian Hogg's "German Artillery Of World War Two".
It was published recently and features a wealth of information on the
artillery designs, both fielded and in various stages of development.

It does highlight the two models of the PaK44 128mm, in both the anti-tank
role and anti-aircraft. The book also features fuses, ammunition numbers,
and much more to identify the various rounds for the artillery.

I wish I had takent the book with me during my move so I can't give you the
ISBN and publisher.

Much success on your projects, Jim.

Best,

Ed
