    Remote-controlled 5cm FlaK 41 battery

    In the late-war period a battery of the ill-fated 5cm FlaK 41 was directed by a remote controlled system, overcoming it`s manual traverse problems and testing what would be the Gerät 58 5,5cm control system. Does anyone know about this development?

    Just found this, and thought I would share it: https://alternathistory.com/teleupravlyaemye-krasnoarmejtsy-elektrotanketka-fantasta-kazantseva/ It seems to be a little-known Soviet equivalent to the German Goliath (and likewise French Kegress Machine).

    Video might be of interest. Can't speak to its accuracy, but at least it doesn't seem too insane. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfio0VHXUmw

    Romanian remote-controlled tracked mine (1944)

    In some sources, a Romanian remote-controlled demolition vehicle - supposedly, a version of Sd.Kfz 302/303 "Goliath" tracked mine - is mentioned. According to a few available data, though, this machine was much larger, about 2 tons, and supposedly radio-controlled. It was tested in 1944...

    Thought we already had a thread on the Goliath robot demolition vehicle, aka tracked mine. Oh well. A reasonably good though short overview (though it overlooks the reusable version): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goliath_tracked_mine
