Re: Identifying Army matériel

Your right, it was an Hafthohlladung or in english Attached hollow charge:
This was a shaped hollow charge that looked rather like an inverted funnel. It had a Sprengkapsel 8 detonator at the top of the handle which gave the operator 7.5 seconds to make his escape. The weapon utilized three powerful magnets that exerted a force of 45 kg to attach it to armoured vehicles. The later HHL 3 was even more powerful and over half a million were produced during the war.

(Figures for HHL 3)

Weight: 3.5 kg

Charge Weight: 1.7 kg

Penetration: 150mm armour plate

Sorry these were hellishly easy, but i am bored stiff.
