Original camo of 11th panzer regiment from 6th Panzer Division
This unit was part of general Hoepner Panzergruppe, which attacked through the Baltic countries in the direction of Leningrad
An interesting fact is that this division was equipped mainly with tanks of Czech production: 155x Pz 35 (t), but we don't find them in the OoB arsenal
These tanks fought in the famous battle of Rasieniai but were finally withdrawn from the front in late 1941 due to significant losses
