	Nashorn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Nashorn ("Rhino"), one version of which was also known as the Hornisse was a German tank destroyer of World War II.
		Nashorn's gun was one of the most effective antitank guns deployed during the war.
		Their ability to engage the enemy at long distances negated the disadvantages they had of light armour and a high profile and was suited to the open, flat landscape of much of Russia.

	AMPS New Zealand. DML Nashorn kit review
		The Nashorn has also been a very popular subject for scratch building and was Dragon's first WWII kit.
		Nashorn were produced during the period when German AFV left the factory in dark yellow (dunkel gelb) and any camouflage was applied by the troops in the field.
		In winter, the crews often applied white wash. Nashorn's usually had the national cross on the side armour and no tactical numbers.

		Its strong point was the powerful 8.8 cm gun L/71, the one that will be mounted on the Kingtiger later in the war.
		Identification: The lenght of the gun, the muzzle brake and the absence of a recuperator above the tube allow to distinguish the Nashorn from its close cousin, the Hummel (a 15 cm howitzer mounted on the same chassis).
		Both types of panzer were engaged in combat for the first time during the battle of Kursk.

	Achtung Panzer! - Hornisse/Nashorn
		In late 1942, Nashorn's chassis and hull was used in the development of Hummel (Sd.Kfz.165).
		Eventually, Nashorns were replaced by the new generation of more powerful and better armored Panzerjagers like Jagdpanzer IV and Panzerjager V Jagdpanther but remained in service to the end of the war.
		Nashorn from 2nd Company of schwere Heeres Panzer Jaeger Abteilung 93 was also responsible for the destruction of the only M26 Pershing, destroyed in Europe.

		Because the Nashorn was to be equipped with an 88mm Pak 43 L/71 gun, the engine was moved to the center and the hull was lengthened to allow adequate room and weight distribution for the long-barreled 88mm gun.
		Nashorn's crews traveled in an open-top fighting compartment with all its weather-related disadvantages.
		On the Eastern Front, many reports stated that Nashorns were able to destroy IS-2 tanks at distances as great as 4000 meters.

	Nashorn Review by Cookie Sewell (Dragon Armor Pro Series 1/72)
		Since both sets of parts come on the same sprues, and the main difference here is the new travel lock and the special gun barrel that comes with the upper mount attached, most of the comments from the earlier kit and review stand as is.
		Note that this IS a different kit and unless you want to fool around with the barrels or replace them, you have to purchase each kit to get either a Hornisse or a Nashorn.
		The gun consists of some 12 parts, with the rear half of the breech split horizontally rather than vertically; if neatly assembled and sanded down with a "Flex-i-File" this should cause no problems and does remove the pesky ridge along the top of the barrel.

	Nashorn
		History: The Nashorn or Rhinoceros, which later became known as the Hornisse (Hornet), was designed in 1942 as a suitable self-propelled mount for the 88mm PaK43.
		In October of 1942, an order was placed for a total production of 500 units, 494 of which were eventually delivered, however 100 of these were ordered to be produced by May of 1943 to be ready for the Summer Offensive.
		The Nashorn was built on the same chassis as the Hummel, the only basic difference being the Hummel carried a 150mm gun.

	Nashorn
		Notes: Special optics and the 88L71 allowed the Nashorn ("Rhino") to kill enemy tanks at extreme ranges.
		The armor, however, was light and the Nashorn was an easy kill at close ranges.
		It was issued to special heavy PzJg units and saw action from summer 1943 in the East, West, and in Italy.

		Wissenschaftler gehen davon aus, daß sich das Breitmaulnashorn vor etwa vier bis fünf Millionen Jahren vom Spitzmaulnashorn abspaltete und sich in seiner Evolution zu einem reinen Grasfresser entwickelte, der damit die Vorzüge der Grassavannen des afrikanischen Kontinents nutzen konnte.
		Das Tier wurde mehrere Monate in Lissabon zur Schau gestellt, bis dann der König entschied, das Nashorn als Geschenk für Papst Leo X nach Rom zu schicken.
		Der Bestand an Sumatra Nashörnern wird mit etwa 318 Tieren angegeben, während das Indische Nashorn mit etwa 2 594 Tieren beziffert wird.

		One result of the discussion was a suggestion to start a "community conversion project" where anybody interested could contribute their own individual efforts at attempting this conversion.
		The idea of the project grew to include not only Nashorn conversions, but also super-detailing projects for the Hummel as well.
		Since this is the opening version of the page, it will be very slim pickings until I get around to adding everything I want to add, and the contributions start to flow in.

		There is a well known pic of a Nashorn knocked out in the Ardennes that is aparently standard Dark Yellow with Green and Brown camo (with a white wash).
		Since the Nashorn production was well over by 1945 the tanks would be in standard 1943-44 colors but with some wear and tear.
		In case anyone wonders why the total is higher than the number of Nashorns build, this is because the allocation files show that between Feb 44 and Feb 45 at least 37 Nashorn were handed over to the Gen.Insp.d.Pz.Tr.

		Many of us who were the founders and "old hands" pitched in to get the ball rolling by contributing review s of new kits or other kits that had been around a while and not covered.
		Both are in the multicolor camouflage schemes popular with modelers, and the full color instruction sheet shows them to good advantage.
		Overall, this is not your "father's" Nashorn and is a much better and better thought out kit than the first one – 164 WWII kits ago.

		This is the other shoe to follow the retooled version of the original DML Nashorn/Hummel chassis kit, and it is the later production version of the Nashorn which originally came out in 1993 as Kit No. 6004.
		The Nashorn has a new "L" and "M" sprue which did not come with the Hornisse.
		The "L" sprue provides the late-model lower hull rear plate with the "C" loops for the spare road wheels.

		Während seiner Reisen traf er 1298 auf ein Nashorn auf der Insel Sumatra und erklärte dieses Tier kurzerhand zu dem bisher unauffindbaren Einhorn.
		Allerdings kann das Nashorn, das er sah, kein Sumatra-Nashorn gewesen sein, da diese Spezies zwei Hörner aufweist; es muß daher ein Java-Nashorn gewesen sein.

		The kit has 357 parts in light gray plastic plus another 240 for the individual track links, a small decal sheet and a small sprue with a selection of nicely moulded infantry weapons.
		New open ammo bins for the rear fighting compartment with seven 88mm rounds to put in the bins, new exhaust pipes plus a numbr of smaller detail parts for the fighting compartment and rear hull.
		Another point to note is you are given a choice of Pz.Kpfw.III Ausf E and J drive sprockets as with the Hornisse kit, but the instructions show the Aust E sprocket throughout, it would be better to use the Ausf J sprockets for this Nashorn version.

		Wahrscheinlich wird das Weisse Nashorn lediglich aufgrund eines Übersetzungsfehlers so genannt: Das burische Wort «wijde» (=breit) veränderte sich wohl aus einem Missverständnis heraus zum englischen «white» (=weiss).
