Ha! Just guessing here but what if a blitz happens to be passing a P-IV just as you swoop down and blow up the truck and the truck, in turn, destroys the P-IV? Ha!

Somebody forgot where the brake was in that Opel full of ammunitions... shame a Panzer was downhill.

I guess Hans is not getting promoted this year. 😀

You see this as well sometimes with artillery correction missions - sometimes an ammo truck near an artillery battery will detonate and take out other targets nearby.

They can take you out as well, if you don't observe proper strafing discipline and are too low when one of those goes off.
