- In this two-part video, we are taken back to Tankfest 2019. The Weald Foundation Jagdpanther 411 was one of several guest vehicles on display at the event.
Our Trustee, Hilary Doyle, took some time to give an interview with Nick Moran, where he talks about our work as a Charity and our Jagdpanther restoration.
We would like Nick Moran who allowed us to share his video on our channel. Please check the Nicholas 'Chieftain' Moran channel for the full video: / @thechieftainshatch

Hilary Doyle seems to be one of the leading tank experts in the world. Thank you!
Certainly when it comes to German armour!
Mr Doyle is a walking encyclopaedia. Great author to. I can recommend his books 👍
Yes, I think I have most of his books but I have many books written by Walter Spielberger and I would recommend it too but there are some new books as well. My opinion is having different books on the same AFV deepen your knowledge, unfortunately quite expensive trough...
Great restoration, and a great technical historian in Hilary Doyle. A winning combination.
Looking forward to seeing this beauty in June.
Beautiful work! Breaks my heart to see historic pieces used as target practice :(
they scrapped an e100..
At the time, they weren't "historic", they were obsolete vehicles captured from a defeated enemy, and the organization that controlled them was more interested in training the current soldiers to stay alive. Yes, now, all these years later, it's a shame that more of them weren't preserved. Times change. I've seen lots of obsolete US vehicles used as targets in training as well as some old British vehicles when training up in Canada.
Thank you for sharing

I want to see Mr Doyle talk to us about the last remaining Maus at the Kubinka museum when things in Russia calms down!
A special tool kit required, hmmm, reminds me of our modern Volkswagen. :-)
Did you guys help out at with drawings or advice with the Australian rebuild of the Jadgpanther at The Australian Armour and Artillery Museum? There's was in very poor condition.
Bubbles loves tanks
How awesome. Great work, guys.
Thank you for posting this. Wondering what's the three letter factory code for MNH ? 🤔
Jagdpanther were rarer than King Tiger. I suspect they had issues with getting those plates lined up. The Germans, at the end, had a surplus of the 88 mm Jagdpanther guns and tried to make ground mounts!!
Not really, there is a photo at the MIAG factory where they produced the Jagdpanther, there are so many hulls made that they had to stack them up for storage at the factory. It was the assembly that was falling way behind schedule in large part due to allied bombing.
The Germans produced almost 800 armored hulls for the Jagdpanther, less than 400 were fully completed.
From the beginning, the Jagpanther never met planned production. In fact, over 300 soldiers were 'loaned' to MIAG to try and increase production. In a report, of the 312 actually built (up to Feb 45), 2/3 were built in Dec/Jan/Feb. How much bombing was responsible is debatable.@@Dreachon
They had huge jugs to hold them in place to weld them together
jigs@@jonowens460 but what is your point?
4 THOUSAND meter confirmed kill? Holy shit.
