Karl Gerät

World War II German self-propelled siege howitzer (Mörser) designed and built by Rheinmetall. It was the largest self-propelled weapon to see service. Seven guns were built, but only six saw combat between 1941 and 1945. It was used to attack the Soviet fortresses of Brest-Litovsk and Sevastopol, bombarded Polish resistance fighters in Warsaw and participated in the Battle of the Bulge and the attacks against the Remagen Bridgehead.
