Rare WW2 Panzer II Flamingo Sd. Kfz. 122 - Panzerkampfwagen 2 footage.
On February 21,1939 the German Army ordered the development of a Flammpanzer. Both producers of Panzer II, MAN and Daimler-Benz were selected to develop that project. Shortly after, July of 1939, soft-steel prototype based on Panzer II Ausf D/E's chassis was built. It was armed with two remotely controlled flamethrowers mounted in small turrets at each front corner of the vehicle. Each flame-thrower had its own fuel tank with 160 liters capacity which was enough to fire 80 "shots" at the maximum range of 25 meters. For additional armament MG34 7.92mm for which 1800 rounds were carried inside. Machine gun was mounted in a small rotating turret. Its crew consisted of three men and its armor protection ranged from 14.5mm to 30mm thickness.
From April to September of 1939, MAN produced 46 complete chassis, which were to be converted into Flammpanzers by Wegmann & Co.(Kassel). Conversion started in January of 1940. In March of 1940, another 30 PzKpfw II Ausf D/Es were taken from 7th (10) and 8th (20) Panzer Divisions and were converted to PzKpfw II(F)s.
Flammpanzers saw service in Russia until late 1941, when both units were withdrawn to Germany and reorganized. Surviving Flammpanzers were converted into Marder IIs. Number of turrets removed from converted Flamingo tanks ended up as part of German fortification e.g. in Norway.
Today only a few Flamingo turrets survived the war and are still mounted on fortifications in and around Norway.
