Various wrecks of panzer IV and panther tanks. Just imagine what these would be worth now

Destroyed Tiger 1 tank. You can clearly see the torsion bar suspension system. 

Plane Wrecks

When the war is over, what planes didn't get recycled; littered the battlefields to decay slowly. A reminder of the harsh past.

Aircraft Graveyard

After the war, there were thousands of aircraft left but no wars to fight. Most of them were scrapped and melted down to produce other goods. The ones lucky enough to survive can be seen in museums everywhere.

Wrecked Tiger Tanks

German Tiger and King Tiger tanks were some of the most feared tanks of World War 2. With their powerful 88mm guns, they could destroy any tank that faced them. A lack of fuel and superior numbers by the Allies inevitably whittled down their numbers. Here are some of the wrecks abandoned or destroyed on the battlefield.

Wrecked Subs

There is something quite fascinating about wrecked submarines. Like a beached iron whale never again to prowl the seas.

Panzer Graveyard

World war 2 German tanks are so rare nowadays. Here is small a panzer graveyard just after the war. It does contain alot of Panther tanks. These were probably melted down later to make Volkswagens or railroads.

If only the neighborhood dumpster looked like this

Costa Concordia Sinks

Despite today's advanced radar and navigational devices, accidents are still common. The Costa Concordia ran aground off the island of Giglio near Italy due to human error.

World War 2 Battleship main gun wreck. Probably a turret from the Battleship Ise Or Hyuga. It is so huge, these people seem like ants.
