Based on Documents from February 1945 „Guidelines for the Employment of the Assault Mortar Battery 38 cm RW 61” (“Richtlinien für den Einsatz der Sturmmörser-Batterie 38 cm RW 61“) we look in this video on how a Sturmtiger Battery was used and also some aspects of the vehicle that are usually not (or maybe have never been covered) in the literature as well.
