Panfilov's 28 Men (film)
« on: November 24, 2016, 03:59:58 pm »
Just watched this item from the BBC's website (if you are not in the UK, you should be able to search for it on BBC.com):

As a film, the vehicles certainly look the part, no idea if it is clever CGI, cut and shut FV432s or original tanks.

I guess the half-tracks are Czech OT810s.

The Panzer IIIs look pretty good.  I'm not sure if they are CGI.  The Panzer IV looks like a mock-up.  The half-track is a re-enactor's vehicle, not part of the film.

In case the Russian culture minister was reading the thread title, I blame autocorrect.

Edited and hopefully fixed.
