When it comes to automobile technology, there is no doubt Germany is ranked high amongst every other country in the automobile game. Whenever you hear ‘German Engineering” there is something that comes to your mind. Some of them are durability, longevity, ruggedness, class, luxury and so on.

Nazi Germany is a common English name for Germany between 1933 and 1945. This was when Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party controlled the country through dictatorship. Then, Germany was transformed into a totalitarian state where almost every aspect of life was controlled by the ruling power. The automobile industry was not left out.

There were crazy vehicles built for the military during the era of war in Naza Germany.

Some of the crazy vehicles built in Germany for the military during the Second World War include:



1. Panzer VIII Maus:
Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus was a super heavy German World War 11 tank built in 1944. It weighs 188 tonnes. It was 10.2 meters (33 ft 6 in) long, 3.71 meters (12 ft 2 in) wide, and 3.63 meters (11.9 ft) high.

It was designed by Ferdinand Porsche and he suggested the design to Adolf Hitler in 1942. It is known to be the heaviest fully enclosed armoured fighting vehicle ever built.

Due to the weight, it was too heavy for bridges. It was then designed to traverse rivers underwater at depths of up to 13m. Only two of it was built before the end of World War II. They were then captured by the Soviets.



2. Mercedes G-4 Wagen:
This seven-seat off-road vehicle was produced by Mercedes Benz in 1934. They were mainly used to transport the top men of the Nazi regime during parades and inspections. They were not produced in mass for general use because they were considered to be too expensive.

The top speed was just 67 km/h.



3. BMW Schneekrad:
The BMW Schneekrad was a single track motorcycle built in 1936. It is considered to be one of the world’s first snowmobiles.



4. Sturmtiger:
The Sturmtiger which means “Assault Tiger” in German was a World War II German assault gun built on the Tiger 1 chassis and was armed with a man-size rocket (380mm). The primary function of the Sturmtiger was to provide heavy fire support for infantry units. The few of the Sturmtiger produced fought in the Warsaw Uprising.



5. MinenRaumer:
The MinenRaumer is a strange looking armoured tractor designed by Alkett, Krupp and Mercedes Benz. The first prototype was completed in 1942.

The vehicle was designed to detonate land mines by simply rolling over them. It also cleared path for men and machine to follow.



6. Goliath tracked mine:
The complete German nomenclature is “Leichter Ladungsträger Goliath” which means “Goliath Light Charge Carrier” in English. They were unmanned remote-controlled ground vehicles used during World War II. They were also known as beetle tanks.

The 1ft tall and 4ft long Goliath was used in the destruction of tanks, disrupting dense infantry formations, and the demolition of buildings and bridges.

When is 111 war coming

mikool007:
Africa is a dump to those people and our weather is too hot for them to stay plus mosquito again aha! you make a whole Hitler die of small malaria

higgs:
After all these, Germany still lost the war.

musicwriter:


Africa would have been better off if Germany had won.

Before the war, Germany had colonies in German East Africa, Togo Republic, Cameroon, Namibia, but they already gave up all their colonies except Namibia. Their leader at that time, Otton Bismarck, thought that colonialism in Africa was very expensive to run, so they left Africa to focus on dominating fellow Europeans.

Today, we're still being colonized by Britain and France and others, though, it's now called neo-colonialism.

Lucifer66:

Do you know what it means for 1 country to fight more than 4 other powerful countries?
They took down france(or Italy not sure) , They nearly took down the sober union. Just 1 country!
If Hitler had redrawn his troops and re think his plans Germany could have won.

Rstc:

No true.

The US was already a technological powerhouse.
That was why they could go head to head against the Nazi.

Though they benefited from the fall of Hitler by absorbing their best scientists into the US space and rocketry programme.

walemoney007:
where did you learn this lie from

German colonies was taken from them after they lost WW1, in fact Hitler wanted most of those colonies back sef

Germandude:

You're not talking to some novice, please.

I think you're mistaking their European colonies, which were taken away from them upon the treaty of Varseilles in 1920, not African colonies. All African colonies they abandoned because as I said there weren't much interest from the German chancellor to continue running them, so military reinforcement wasn't forthcoming to maintain them.

If Germany was still interested in colonizing Africa, WW2 would have been fought in Africa instead of Europe, and Germany would have actually chased away Britain and France from Africa because Hitler defeated them over there in Europe before the US came in to save them.

It's like you don't know that the Nazi plan was to wipe off human life from Africa and use the land for agriculture for the Aryans

Ethiopia was eventually colonized by Italy. Then, Britain managed to infiltrate them.

Occupied not colonised FULL STOP

Their African colonies were taken from them by Britain and France after they LOST World War I. They did abandon the colonies

musicwriter:


Occupied is the same as colonized. You have to occupy to colonize.
