That sixth slot was filled quickly by a bin of anti-Panzer rockets ("Panzerschreck") located just a few steps in front of me. I would find these of great value in short order.
Similar in nature to a bazooka, the Panzerschreck rockets eliminated the enemy tank after a couple rounds.
Along with the tank were more German soldiers, who game me some trouble as was aiming my Panzerschreck, but were easily dispatched with my Thompson submachine gun.

  Panzerschreck
The major differences to the Panzerfaust were the size and the fact that the Panzerschreck by design was to be a reloading weapon, preferrably crew served by trained and dedicated two-man AT teams (gunner and loader), while the Panzerfaust was a single-use, disposable close range one-man weapon for use by everybody.
The Panzerschreck was even used at night: an illuminating flare round then had to be fired behind the enemy tank in order to let the tank silhouette stand out against the bright background.
Sources give figures for anything from 150m to 1,000m as range: The Panzerschreck's technical data call for a theoretical engagement range of 700m (!), practical engagement ranges are usually cited with 400m for static targets and 100 to 230m for moving targets.

Also, the Panzerschreck’s firing mechanism was electric (like that of the Bazooka), while the Panzerfaust used a percussion ignition much like the cartridges of a normal gun.
The firing tube of the original Panzerschreck model, the Raketenpanzerbüchse 43, was 164cm (65 in.) long and weighed 9.25kg (20.4 lb) (empty).

The Panzerschreck (German: tank terrorizer) was the popular name for the Raketenpanzerbüchse ('rocket tank rifle', abbreviated to RPzB) an 88 mm calibre reusable anti-tank rocket launcher developed by the Germans in World War II.
German engineers then reverse-engineered their captured bazookas, and this resulted in the Panzerschreck, which had a significantly greater penetration power and a range of 150 m.
Triple Panzerschrecks were mounted on some SdKfz 251s, Volkswagen Kübelwagens and captured Universal Carriers.

 Panzerschreck
Panzerschreck (tank terror in German language) is an anti-tank weapon used by Germany during World War II.
It was developed by copying the US Army "bazooka", but made considerably more capable in armor penetration to deal with then current and future Red Army tanks.
Whereas the early bazooka shells had problems with German 100mm armor, notably on the Tiger tank, the more advanced Panzerschreck shells could penetrate over 200mm of armor by the end of the war, enough to deal with any tank fielded at the time.

 Panzerschreck - Definition, explanation
Panzerschreck (tank terror in German language), abbreviated RPzB (Raketenpanzerbüchse), is an 88mm calibre re-usable anti-tank rocket launcher developed by the Germans in WWII to give infantry an anti-tank capability.
The result was the Panzerschreck which was considerably more powerful than the Bazooka, with an effective range of about 150m.
Whereas the early bazooka shells had problems with German 100mm armor, notably on the Tiger tank, the more advanced Panzerschreck shells could penetrate over 200mm of armor by the end of the war, enough to deal with any tank fielded at the time.

 Panzerschreck
The backblast of the Panzerschreck was even more dangerous than that of the Panzerfaust.
The common tactic for hunting or defending against tanks from 1944 on was the use of special anti-tank teams, so-called "Panzerzerstörergruppen" ("tank destroyer groups"), which consisted of two squads with 3 Panzerschreck each.
At early, out of 12 Panzerschreck rounds fired at a static T-34 at a range of 100m only 3 hit the target.

Panzerschreck использовался даже ночью: в этом случае позади танка запускали осветительную ракету, чтобы его силуэт был хорошо различим стрелком.
Panzerschreck были поначалу менее эффективны, чем Panzerfaust, потому что стрелки часто открывали огонь с дистанций более 100м.
Большие размеры Panzerschreck также часто становились помехой в отходе стрелка в укрытие после производства выстрела.

 Panzerschreck
Der Panzerschreck ("Raketenpanzerbüchse") war eine Panzerabwehrwaffe, die während des zweiten Weltkriegs auf deutscher Seite zum Einsatz kam.
Der Panzerschreck wurde im Jahr 1944 anhand einer erbeuteten amerikanischen Bazooka mehr oder weniger nachgebaut, dann allerdings in eigener Regie weiterentwickelt und wesentlich durchschlagskräftiger gemacht, um es mit den aktuellen sowie zukünftigen sowjetischen Panzern der Roten Armee aufnehmen zu können.
Während die frühen Originalgeschosse des Bazooka noch große Probleme mit der deutschen 100-mm-Panzerung vor allem des Tiger hatten und gegen den Tiger II (Königstiger) praktisch wirkungslos waren, konnten die technisch weit überlegenen Raketen-Geschosse des Panzerschreck über 200 mm an Panzerung durchschlagen, was völlig ausreichte, um wirklich jeden feindlichen Panzer außer Gefecht zu setzen.

The German Panzerschreck ("Tank Terror") was a larger, more powerful antitank weapon than the more common Panzerfaust.
The Panzerschreck consisted of a steel tube and a dry cell electrical firing mechanism.
An 88 mm hollow-charge rocket projectile was inserted into the rear end of the tube; pressing the trigger closed the contacts and ignited the propellant in the back of the rocket, firing the 3.2-kilogram projectile out of the tube.

Also when Panzerschreck first appeared it had clear edge in effective range compared to panzerfaust, but as panzerfaust was further developed this difference between the two was reduced.
Panzerschreck also was more of a specialist weapon, while panzerfaust was weapon issued in large numbers to regular infantry rifle squads.
The Finnish official Panzerschreck team size was three men: One man acted as Panzerschreck gunner, another had submachinegun ready for enemy infantry and the third one carried ammunition for Panzerschreck and often also had Panzerfaust as a backup weapon.

The result was the Panzerschreck, utilizing the Bazooka's simple steel tube design, shaped warhead, and quick reloading ability, the German's now had a formidable anti tank weapon with a range of 150m.
These Panzerschreck were very effective, and could penetrate over 200mm of armor, compared to the bazooka, which had difficulty penetrating the 100mm of armor on German tanks.
The Panzerschreck had a couple of downsides though, its problems being its weight and smoke.

The single piece Panzerschreck is a superb casting with very fine details such as the firing handles, rear wire guard and even the wiring from the trigger to the rear as well as the distinctive engraved channel down the length of the body and the delicate front sights.
There is some fine resin film and small casting blocks to be removed and care should be taken when removing these especially from inside the rear wire guard and around the firing handles as it is easy to mistake part of the handle for casting blocks especially the lower section of the handle.
The alternate heads have a Para helmet with and without cam netting but when firing these early Panzerschrecks the gunner needed to wear a gas mask or protective clothing to guard against the rocket plume and a head with gas mask could have been a nice alternative.
