Introducing the German "Panzerwurfmiene", a hand-held, fin stabilized Anti-Tank Grenade
which was developed on the hollow charge principal after the "Hafthohlladung".
It was mainly issued to Fallschirmjaeger anti tank teams as a non-bulky,handy tank killer weapon.
Thrown like a grenade to impact on the tanks surface,(about 40 meters maximum range) the weapon was first issued in may 1943 as the PWM-1,and was improved throughout the war and subsequently issued also to Heer and SS anti-Tank teams.Weighing about 3 lbs. with a 4.5 inch warhead,it packed quite a punch.
Am "issueing" you a FJ,HEER and SS version.
Enjoy...
