Description
The Vogelspinne scuttles across the battlefield on six legs, bringing to bear a variety of deadly weapons that can be turned to any task.
The Panzerkampfgeher II Vogelspinne started life as an improved 'heavy' variant developed from the Spinne by adding an extra pair of legs to reduce the wear on individual bearings that plagued the earlier design. The added complication of the drivetrain and gyroscopes necessitated lengthening the hull substantially and the project was dubbed the Pz.Kpfg. II Vogelspinne instead. The Vogelspinne retains the light anti-tank gun and 20mm autocannon weaponry of the Spinne but in a fully-enclosed, armoured turret. Provision has also been made to mount a Rift-powered Maschinen Schwere gravity weapon, or a twin light flak cannon mounting.
