Re: German armoured engineer vehicles
treadhead,
Thanks for your resarch efforts fella. I've seen the KStN for the 251/16 Zug and they do sem to have been deployed in the Pioneer company of the Pz Gren Regiemnt at least from some point in 1944.
The 251/Rak is an intersting case. Getting information on its TOE seems quite hard. From the little I've come across they do seem to have been deployed within Pioneer units but at what level/numbers I'm not sure. They seem to have been a field modifcation kit to the standard 251 APC rather than a purpose built unit.
Info on the mine clearing tanks is even harder to come by. I'm still looking but haven't found any evidence that they progressed beyond the design stage which is surprising considering the sucess of allied mine clearing tanks.
Can anyone help?
