Building 🇩🇪 Landkreuzer P. 1500 "Monster"🇩🇪 (Heavy Self PropelledGun) papercraft

The Landkreuzer P 1500 Monster was a purported German pre-prototype super-heavy self-propelled gun designed during World War II. While it is mentioned in a number popular works about World War II projects, there is no solid documentation for the program's existence, and it may have only been a semi-serious proposal, or even an outright hoax. The Landkreuzer P. 1500 Monster was a Prototype of an ultraheavy tank, designed by Krupp that would serve as a platform for artillery vehicle Schwerer Gustav. The project began in 1942 but was canceled by Albert Speer. If completed the tank would be bigger than the Panzer VIII Maus (The largest tank ever built and even larger than Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte which was also was never completed.

The Landkreuzer P. 1000 "Ratte" (English: Land Cruiser P. 1000 "Rat") was a design for a 1000-ton tank to be used by Germany during World War II which may have been proposed by Krupp director Edward Grotte in June 1942, who had already named it "Landkreuzer".Submitted designs and drawings of the vehicle went under the names OKH Auftrag Nr. 30404 and E-30404/1, which were presented in December. They put ink to paper and created the P.1500, a monstrous Landkreuzer simply named Monster. While the P.1000 design featured a pair of 280mm guns, the P.1500 would use a long-barreled variant of Krupp's own 800mm Heavy Gustav. If reality never sank in at Grotte's aerie in Essen, it did at the armaments ministry in Berlin. The Landkreuzer P.1500 Monster was a proposed super heavy self-propelled gun designed by Germany during World War II. It represented the highest extreme of German mobile artillery designs. The Monster was designed for the purpose of carrying the German 800 mm Dora/Schwerer Gustav K. (E) Rail Gun, a massive artillery piece capable of shattering the most well fortified positions. Had this. These included the Landkreuzer P.1000 "Ratte" (1,000 tons) and Landkreuzer P.1500 "Monster" (1,500 tons). The Germans discovered, however, that the enormous weight of all these vehicles put a tremendous strain on the engines, transmissions, and suspension systems—not to mention their unquenchable thirst for increasingly scarce fuel.

At its core, the Landkreuzer P.1500 system would field a powerful 800mm K (E) main gun to be used primarily in countering fortified enemy positions. The primary armament was to be situated within a fixed superstructure which would have to be of considerable size and strength to carry the gun. The recoil equipment would be integral to the gun. The Landkreuzer P 1500 Monster was a German pre-prototype super-heavy artillery designed during World War II, representing the apex of the German extreme tan. The project was called Landkreuzer P. 1500 Monster and was to be powered by 4 submarine diesel engines. It was planned to be armed with a Schwerer Gustav as the main cannon with two smaller 150 mm. Hitler had planned an even bigger version of the Ratte, the Landkreuzer P 1500 Monster. This device would have carried an 800mm (31½ inches) Schwerer Gustav artillery piece that could fire 7-ton projectiles. Because the massive gun would not be mounted on a turret, however, the Monster would have been considered self-propelled, armored.

In the midst of World War II, Hitler pushed for the creation of one of the most powerful, and least practical, weapons of all time: the Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte.. The Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte would have been the largest, heaviest tank ever created. Weighing 1,000 tons, five times the weight of the heaviest tank ever built, and measuring 115 feet long, the Ratte was a testament to overkill. Landkreuzer P.1500 "Monster" This "land cruiser" was a self-propelled platform for the 800mm Schwerer Gustavartillery piece also made by Krupp—the heaviest artillery weapon ever constructed by shell weight and total gun weight, and the largest rifled cannon by calibre. This gun fired a 7-tonne projectile up to 37 km (23 miles) and was. P.1500 LandKruizer "Monster". Paper Project with 800mm K, impression of the artist for the scheme. On 23 June 1942 the German Ministry of Armaments proposed a 1000 tonne Landkreuzer P.1000 Ratte, and In December, Krupp designed an even larger 1500 tonne P.1500 Monster self-propelled gun. In 1943, Albert Speer, the Minister for Armaments. The Landkreuzer P. 1500 Monster was designed to be a self-propelled platform for a shoot 80 cm KE gun along with 2 x 15 cm sFH 18 heavy howitzers and several MG 151 autocannons generally used on combat aircraft. Eventually, the German Army determined the gun was impractical and canceled the project in 1943. If the weapon had been built, it.
