    well, you don' normally stand under a tank since most maintenance are done without lifting one up in the first place. Even when tanks are jacked up, you don't need to get under the tank to work on it. Not the case with the Maus since tracks don't have access hatches unlike every other tank with armored skirts.

    Maus wasn't a good idea. 1) Run over small, common AT mine. 2) Get tracked. Since a common detracking is a DEPOT level repair for such a huge tank, crew groans and does nothing. 3) Have to wait patiently for a gigantic (not yet invented at prototyping) tank recovery vehicle to pull you out, which will take several hours. 4) Giant, juicy tank gets bombed by every fighter-bomber in the area during that several hours. 5) Armor which has no problem against a 122mm to the glacis plate dies quickly and horribly against multiple 500-lb semi-armor piercing bombs to the turret roof. 6) PROFIT ??? Not if you're the Germans, you don't. More like SQUANDER ???.

UK/US/RU hands. Single Tiger tank only got captured, even in working condition, it is being held in UK museum if I'm not mistaken, and once a year, or more, Tiger is being powered up and have few circles for audience to check out tanks. Why only one got captured and not blown up ? The crew was so desperate that they didn't even set charges and just ran away...that Tiger was up against few Churchill's in desert.

Think of how much more energy a modern sabot round has compared to the 12.8, the 12.8 is not even in the same ball park. Modern sabots have well over double the kinetic energy compared to the 12.8 and still can have issues getting penetration frontally.

    not able to take off skirt seems a problem, until you realize - there is a full-grown *chieftain* standing upright next to it. maybe you could access them from the inside? Seeing how theres plenty of room (height-wise at least) between ground and hull ceiling?

    Anyone's guess how they thought that this "tank" (more like a bunker on tracks) was going to change anything that late in the war. One Maus against 1000 T-34s or M4 Shermans? There was no way that this monster was going to impact the war in Germany's favor. Too expensive, too labor intensive (to build and maintain), impossible to move around, huge demand for fuel, a big target, etc. It was a failure even before they even started building one prototype. But Hitler was crazy for superheavy tanks and military equipment which sounded good on paper (i.e. the V3 Englandkanone).

    I think it would be good as a mobile pillbox, like to prevent the D-Day landings, except it was too big to fit onto a train. Beyond that, no

    Garrett Montgomery Yes. He actually wanted a bigger gun on it because it didn't look big enough in relation to the body.

    Actually, it was less than a third of what you posted, and many of his kills are believed to actually been from the tanks under his command. It was common practice to take credit for all the tanks kills be the tanks in your group.

    +Corristo89 One Maus against 1000 T-34s? Easy cake, the poor 76mm guns would only scratch its camouflage (just look at the 122mm impact on it), the problem would be the lack of enough ammo. After that you have crush them by running them over with your 185 ton tonk.

    Actually, by 1945, they were mostly variants of the T-34/85 with an 85mm gun, they would have been much better at killing a Maus. However, mobile artillery would have been best, since the Maus was so cumbersome.
