Several defensive lines were devised by the German High command to protect German territorial gains made in the early phases of the war, such as the Panther-Wotan line on the Eastern Front, the Atlantic Wall in Northern France, as well as others in Italy and Germany. This need led to the development of what was called the Pantherturm - Panther Bunker Turret, and today we're looking inside!

The idea of using tank guns as turrets is actually ingenious. It's simple, easy, less time consuming to setup and it doesn't require you to have a separate facility to manufacture the parts needed. It saves money, time, manpower and makes for more efficient logistics.

​@@Tom-bm3hxI think a lot of Panther models had MG34/42 mounted aside the main cannon. You could also have a MG crew set up nearby the turret/bunker and take turns manning it. If anyone tried to assault the bunker, the MG team could spot and engage them from another angle while the attackers are focused on the bunker. This is just my overactive imagination and to my knowledge, not based on any factual events.

Couple corrections here: 1. Sherman’s were not obsolete as revisionist history makes them out to be. They were less powerful, but more than capable to penetrate the armor of a Tiger or even Panther V by 1944. it does ultimately depend on the variant though. The early Sherman’s were excellent in North Africa, but were very much outclassed by the Tigers at this time. Thankfully very few Tigers were in Africa or the western front in general. 2. The Allied Air Force was legit superior, however, they very seldom ever hit tanks due to the small size (compared to the fast speed the planes approach in). Instead, the Allied air forces focused more heavily on wiping out reinforcing tanks still on the railway or hampering German logistics entirely. The P-47 was amazing with this! The Mosquitoes were also excellent in the African theatre.
@tedhubertcrusio372

The P-47 was a US built aircraft with ground-attack capability that saw significant use in the European theater. The Catalina was a US built seaplane with reconnaissance and anti-submarine capabilities. It wasn't used to destroy tanks.

This video more addresses the purpose and use of panther turret bunkers and less the life inside one of these. Sure there are some beds that can fold up, there's a stove, it's probably cramped though there's some storage space and an escape way. You get into combat like you're suppose to. But what of the actual life inside one of these things? What shifts do the soldiers take, do they sit and guard an area inside the bunker or is there an outside area they chill at with other crews until the enemy is spotted and then run to their bunker? What's the food and water situation? How do they communicate to those outside of the bunker, whether directly outside or distant? Toilets? From morning to night, what do they do?

interestingly there seems to be an opportunity that was overlooked: the thickness of a tanks armour was limited by weight constraints, which in turn come from the mobility requirements of a tank a stationary tank turret is not mobile, the weight rests on an immobile under-construction. it would have been possible to up-armour such turrets. a lot.

Speaking of 75mm. There was a video here on You Tube that stated US soldiers preferred the 75 over larger guns. Tests showed that for some reason 75s created more shrapnel that other size guns. It went on to state that on the Western front the allies didn't deal with near the volume of tanks that the Soviets encountered but had to deal with more foot soldiers. The wide spread of the 75 shrapnel helped in that.

During desert storm, the Iraqi forces entrenched their tanks to use them as defensive positions (similar to the video, tho by half burying some of their tanks) and it did NOT go well for them. They became sitting ducks to a modern military. Plus, i think with things like drone warfare, the concept of a large stationary defensive box actually can backfire if they arent well enough protected by other forces. See previous Desert Storm : their tanks werent all that well protected even in the half burried 'tank foxholes' even tho the idea in concept was sound. (tho i guess you can argue that not only were their tanks, tactics, but just everything overall was outdated for them so the idea itself could still be practical if done right.) idk if this concept has been used at all in any current modern ongoing wars.

Well, France wasn't the only country that was using tanks such as Renault light tanks. Also Yugoslavia used these tanks as well. Maybe some of these Yugoslav tanks, were captured by Germans. Of course this is just a guessing (but who am I to judge that). But I do know when Germany occupied Yugoslavia in WWII, they captured Yugoslav plane such as Icarus IK-3 Rogožarski. I have also heard that there were the flak turrets as well. They were used as an anti-aircraft defense against bombings. Also I have heard that they were used as a shelters where civilians took shelter when there were sounded air raid siren. They were also made out of concrete, and by external appearance, they looked like medieval castles.

Would there be communication links and an overall commander when there are multiple turret bunkers? What about supporting infantry?

For the second part of Your question I can answer being into italian army service mid '80s. We had a zone very close to yugoslavian border and we put tank turrets sunk in the ground . They were under control of the Fanteria D'Arresto, First line defensive system. We at Fanteria Meccanizzata were a very little behind with our M113 Vtc armoured troops transport light tanks. And in the same zones were parachute troups. Hope It helps

Imagine being safe in the living area and the only way out is through the turret top hatch and the turret gets destroyed. You will probably die alone and forgotten of starvation, suffocation or by your own hand

why didn't they just completely attach the covering to the turret? wouldn't that ensure that the covers don't get pushed aside when it turns?

I'm thinking a Similar idea of a military defensive Turret line where every other turret has a tank gun, or turret with Artillery gun on Ukraines Eastern flank. It might be Helpful against Russia. They use Radios to keep in touch, and if an Artillery shot is More needed than a tank shot one, then one would be in place to be Called upon. Ukraine has a number of old Soviet era stocks to pull from to use. Be similar to the maginot line, but you beef it by also using Mines, and a Personnel Trench, movable Artillery, dragons teeth, and concertina wire.

sadly no, a stationary target is a dead traget in modern warfare with drones and precision strike ammunition and even lacking that the russians have no problem throwing 100+ dumb shells at a target only 1 has to hit.
