Sturmtiger: The Combat History of Sturmmörser Kompanies 1000-1002 by Lee Archer and Timm Haasler

Sturmtiger: The Combat History of Sturmmörser Kompanies 1000-1002 documents this fascinating weapons system from its inception in 1943 to its first use in Warsaw and the battles in Germany during 1945.

After researching for many years using German, American, and British records, authors Lee Archer and Timm Haasler are the first to tell the story of the units that used the Sturmtiger. This 176-page book is illustrated with 130 large-format black-and-white photographs. A separate map by Simon Vosters shows the combat areas, and Felipe Rodna has created 14 specially commissioned artworks, the most accurate to date.
