Strange Borgward unit
Does anyone know anything about this unit? Perhaps this is an experimental unit equiped with Borgwards. Notice the mounts on the armor for Panzerschreck.

Re: Strange Borgward unit
Not strictly my field but got me interested,
Borgward B IV Ausführung mit Raketenpanzerbüchse 54
I think some Borgward IV Ausf. Bs and Cs were converted to the Panzerjäger Wanze, armed with six RPzB 54/1 anti-tank rockets. These fought some small skirmishes against Soviet Tanks and saw a little action in Berlin, but nothing much else.
I too would like to know more
as they did like'd to experiment with these, like one equipped with a television camera! and I think an amphibious type.

Re: Strange Borgward unit
