Overview:
Shortly after the Battle of Wadi Akarit, two Daimler armoured cars of 11th Hussars were on a patrol when a large enemy tank, a Tiger VIE, was spotted. They moved in to engage it. One armoured car held the attention of the German tank while its partner closed in for the kill. On being hit in the flank, the Tiger crew bailed out and surrendered, To their credit, the armoured car crews had not appreciated that their prey was disabled before they began their hunt. Sadly, this incident was used by the advocates of mobility over armour to 'prove' that heavy tanks would not be needed in the forthcoming European Campaign.Attacker: British (11th Hussars)
Defender: German (Schwerer Panzer-Abteilung 501)
