I will precise that all this documentation is made by Mr Belot Henri, french EOD technician of civil protection.
It is really great done.
According to what I've read, only 25 of the tanks were built by the end of the war. One historian said it could have changed the outcome of many battles.
There are only a few of the rounds left to be seen, Dutch EOD has one, the tank museum in Munster, Germany has one (with their tank), and there is one at a State EOD facility in Germany. If nobody else has it handy I might be able to dig out a photo of the projo later.
