The Ampulomet was a strange, mortar-like device that launched a glass ball containing a mixture of phosphorus and sulfur up to 400 meters, albeit inaccurately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003ePerhaps the most unusual and controversial anti-tank weapon was the \"dog mine.\" Equipped with a simple lever, it triggered its charge when the dog sought shelter under enemy tanks or vehicles. Many animals simply ran from the noise and smells of battle, while others fled to the safety of Soviet machinery or trenches. The Germans were sufficiently frightened to shoot any dogs they saw—the dog mine teams are credited with destroying several German tanks at the Battle of Kursk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eContains the following Soviet metal figures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e 2-man anti-tank rifle team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e 2 dog mine teams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Ampulometer team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Plastic base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Models are delivered unassembled and unpainted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Warlord Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48023211475114,"sku":"122305","price":19.23,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3432\/6698\/files\/122305-soviet-anti-tank-teams-402214007-1.webp?v=1783199810","url":"https:\/\/tabletop-depot.de\/en\/products\/soviet-anti-tank-teams","provider":"Tabletop Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
