An Infantry Nightmare of Steel and Fire: Flammpanzer III

War Park 2023-05-17 11:01



Germany was one of the first countries to produce flamethrower tanks in World War II. These tanks are the ultimate anti-infantry weapon. Their tank guns were replaced with high-powered flamethrowers, leaving anyone on the receiving end of the weapon feeling raw fear.



The fierce street fighting at Stalingrad in 1942 made the Germans on the Eastern Front in need of a flamethrower to clear ramparts and buildings of enemy soldiers, the Flammpanzer III came into being.​​​ The Flammpanzer III was based on the Model III M, which was replaced with a 14 mm spitfire tube and a false barrel. A 7.92 mm MG34 coaxial machine gun in the turret was retained. As the flamethrower was mounted on the turret, the Flammpanzer III had a 360-degree steering capability, a pitch range of -10 to + 20 degrees, and an observation port at the front of the commander's tower provided a field of view. The two fuel tanks inside the vehicle can hold a total of 1020 liters of injected fuel, enough for 125 short one-second injections or 80 long three-second injections.



The Flammpanzer III had a maximum spray distance of 60 m (50 m in cold spray), a jet force of 15 to 17 atmospheres, powered by a Koebe pump, and a jet rate of 7.8 l / s. The Kebe pump is powered by a two-stroke, 28-horsepower ZW-1101 engine that consumes a mixture of fuel. The fire blaster uses an electronic ignition device called Smitskerzen.







This month War Park introduced the German Grey III Flammpanzer tank.


The Flammpanzer III can be pushed in the tracks + turret with three doors open.

Chassis + track + barrel + fittings are metal parts, and the rest of the body is resin parts, adding a detachable flame effect.​

钢铁与火焰的步兵噩梦--三号喷火坦克

战争公园 2023-05-17 11:01


 德国是第二次世界大战中最早生产火焰喷射坦克的国家之一。这些坦克是终极反步兵武器。他们的坦克炮被替换成高能火焰喷射器,让武器接收端的任何人感到原始的恐惧。


1942年斯大林格勒惨烈的巷战使得东线德军需要一款火焰坦克来扫清壁垒和建筑物中的敌军士兵,三号喷火坦克应运而生。三号喷火坦克以三号M型坦克为基础,在拆除了坦克炮后,取而代之以14毫米喷火管,并在其外面套有假炮管。炮塔上的1挺7.92毫米MG34同轴机枪被保留。由于三号喷火坦克的火焰喷射器安装在炮塔上,因此拥有了360度的转向能力,俯仰射界为-10度到+20度,车长指挥塔前部的观察口为其提供了视野。车体内的2个燃料罐总共可以容纳1020升喷射燃料,足够进行125次一秒钟时间的短喷射或80次三秒钟时间的长喷射。


三号喷火坦克的最大喷火距离为60米(冷喷时为50米),喷射力为15至17个大气压,由克贝(Koebe)式泵提供动力,喷射速率为7.8升/秒。这种克贝式泵依靠1个两冲程、最大功率为28马力的ZW-1101型发动机驱动,发动机需要消耗混合油料。火焰喷射器使用一种名为“斯米茨科森”(Smitskerzen)的电子打火装置点火。
