History of the VsKfz.617 Minenräumer Vehicle

The VsKfz.617 Minenräumer was a prototype German vehicle developed for minefield clearing, designed for the Wehrmacht during World War II. The vehicle was created around 1942, commissioned by the German army. It was characterized by extremely massive steel wheels and a heavy construction intended for breaking through mine barriers. Despite intensive technical development, only a single prototype was built – it is currently on display at the Kubinka Tank Museum in Russia. The Minenräumer was only used in the testing phase on the Eastern Front during World War II.
