- The last running Nashorn in the world! It's a tremendous project to bring the "Phoenix" back to life and keep it running. Check out how the team has done it!
Special thanks to Mr. Van Sambeek for his time and for his footage. This is a very special project that I'm proud to assist, in the areas of fundraising and promotion specifically. Keep up!

I was saddened when I heard that the Nashorn was burned in a fire accident but now, I'm quite happy that all of these people put in their efforts and time to restore the Nashorn once more. Incredible team
What a nice coincidence, I just watched Robby on the Mastermilo/werkshopvlog channels (the guys that are restoring the Type 69-II) where they gave a nice tour of the vehicle
Thanks so much for sharing this. I just love to see the passion for these historic and exceedingly rare vehicles. And just to get a behind the scenes look at exactly what it really takes to bring one of these 75 year old dinosaurs back to life.
Man, after seing your video here, I've been dreaming Nashorn the entire night, and especially the fire part was a nasty part of the nightmare, except you experienced it for real!!!
I can't even imagine......
A fascinating project. It was distressing to me to see the damage done in the fire but am happy to see that it hasn't stopped the project. I trust that you, young Sofi will provide us with additional updates and a video when this project has reached the point where the vehicle is truly mobile again. I'm old enough to know that projects like this are never truly 'complete,' there is always something more to be done to add to the authenticity of the project whether the project is a car, locomotive, ship or 'tank.'
Thank you Mr. Van Sambeek for these looks into the hard work you and your team are doing. All the best.
Thanks Robert and i will surely keep Sofi informed on the project and whenever she will be in the neighborhood she will get a glimpse inside for herself
@@jackofalltrades164 Shortly after writing my post above I found a video of the 'Phoenix' running at a show. It looks and sounds great, well done sir!
@@robertf3479 thanks
Really unique project ! Saw it at MT 2019, damaged but beauty and a beast in one. You make that T-shirt sparkle Sofi !
Excellent! I've built a couple of 1:35 scale model Nashorns over time. Cool vehicle and pretty darn deadly in the right hands for sure. Thanks for having all these cool videos Sofilein!
The Nashorn is my favourite German WW2 Tank Destroyer.
A monumental restoration effort.
I remember hearing about the fire a month or so afterwards....such a tragedy to have lost so much work progress & equipment... & almost the whole vehicle.
Thankfully they've recovered & are getting her close to the finish line.
My favorite in WOT is the t-40 but the Nash was an easy grind. Love the history involved with all the tanks, people lately seem to have forgotten their history, therefore we may be doomed to repeat it. Happy to see our historian reporting is as eye catching as what she is reporting on. Thank you for your efforts ma'am👍😘
Get what you can get? Nashorn is an AWESOME vehicle. It's one of my favorites td's... I would LOVE to see it upclose. Not to mention ride 1. Thank you Sofi!
A Nas is right up there with a Tiger or Panther to go and look at, get to ride one, well this old mans little boy mind can dream lol, perhaps it will be my next RC tank purchase, if I cant have a real one, 1/16 RC next best thing.
Nice video Sofilein like always, man even before you ask it about the CAD 3D program that he was using i knew that was Inventor is difficult to not recognize that program XD.
Hey guys.
sorry i couldn't be there for the premiere tonight. hope you all enjoyed the video.
Neat! 😀👍
Fantastic! Also, that is some pretty awesome modeling in 1:1 scale!! ;-D
Excellent as usual Sofi liked the interview great to hear about the history of the Nashorn and also that it is up and running. Thank you and your guest for showing us yet another awesome beast see you next time. Hope you and your family stay safe.
Thanks Sofi
Thank you so much for bringing us this Sofilein.
Another Outstanding video and presentation.
Thank you!
Is it just me or is this the same Nashorn as the one from the MasterMilo videos? Really weird coincidence that both of your channels produced a video on this rare machine on the same day!
Yes it's the same vehicle
Nice informativ video, I hope to see the Nashorn running in 2021 @ Militracks in Overloon (NL) if the event isn't canceled again because of covid-19 restrictions
OK, 3-D printing rocks! Can't wait for them to scan in all of the parts of any particular vehicle for reconstruction. Thank you so much for bringing this out to share.
lol, im printing out some minis right now, and was thinking of buying a 1/16 RC Nas, but got to thinking, i could print one in pieces on my Mars, be small, but be so cool.
@@doomed2die595 oh, geezum, what a brilliant idea! Use a 3-d printer to make parts for a 1/35 kit that you need extras for. I'm sure someone else has already done this, right?
Yes, another excuse to get an expensive toy!
Very cool thank you.
Fantastic work as always Sofi, thanks so much for being the champion that gets her hands dirty and sheds light in the sheds of all things heavy and hearty.
Thanks Sofilien as a kid my dream is what you are doing making tank vids
I saw this one on mastermilo, it was being loaded on a tractor-trailer to go back to your new garage.
Sofi the AAF tank musuem in Danville Virginia is really struggling if you made a video they could get more visits to make money to repair the roof and restore tanks but it’s a really amazing musuem with a lot of rare tanks like a t72 t34/85 m103 m551 t55 m1916 and ~120 in total
It always amazes me how few tanks (especially German tanks) are still fully functioning. It really shows how every thing was throw at the war
schönes Video - grüsse aus Sachsen/Deutschland
In the pre computer gaming era the Nashorn was one of my fav game miniatures for shooting up T-34s at long range; but the Jagdtiger was my boss cat: the 8.8 cm L/71 + frontal armour.
Subbed. Saw you from the stream. Great content. 👍
The sheet metal they are using on the gun mount looks a bit flimsy. Is that the same gauge steel they used originally? I remember when they had the fire. They’ve come a long way. My compliments to the crew for their tenacity.
t's the same gauge as original
Awesome! I would personally LOVE to see Sturer Emil running with its mighty 128mm 🙂
Interesting video.There was a famous German so called "ace" who was a commander of one of these I think.But anyways thanxs again for information.Your a really cool historian who actually gets out there and shows you.Not to many peaple do that.
Albert Ernst i believe
@@jasonvazquez7643 indeed
That's right.Thanx.There was a game called panzer front for PlayStation 1 and there was a battle were you played him holding off a Russian attack.Then years ago I read it in a book called panzer aces.Good stuff!
thanks sofi : )
the quality of your videos has improved greatly over the years.
Sofilein you are so Beautiful, i can not focus on the topic, when you are in the picture :D
Hey I saw in ur livestream that you're always looking for more tank museums. Well there a really good museum in Danville Virginia called the AAF Tank Museum and they got stuff like the Panzer IV and a 1917 light tank and you can schedule to go inside some of the tanks.
P.S. I'm going to be starting up a historical UA-cam channel and tips and advice would be greatly appreciated
Great video
Thank you!
What a fine generation project! Are they preparing the gun to work with compressed air?! I would love that!
That would be very illegal in the Netherlands unfortunately
@@jackofalltrades164 What a pity, but uphold the law. Maybe carry some Champagne for the plopping noises.
Couldn't really get a better vehicle to restore really! Look up Bruce Comptian in UK he's a military dealer deals with Bovington etc alot and has that TV show combat dealers, just take him with a pinch of salt and always negotiate but he has wear houses full of stuff bit from everything and his contacts are just crazy! I know he's got alot of Nashorn part's laying around!
Fingers crossed will see the Phonix at the YWE!
Love your videos!
For a second I thought this was Davids channel with the countdown.
Yeah that return roller rubber model took quite a while to create and to get right. I had to measure everything off of an original manually with callipers and radius gauges etc., and there was no current font close enough to the original so I sketched up all of the lettering, numbers and logos as well from scratch.
It took me maybe 50 hours plus to perfect that model from the original to my satisfaction, and is close overall to within 2 or 3mm to the original max error, so hopefully Robby is happy with it since I didn’t fine tune the model for 3D printing (like by not adding corner rounds on the lettering etc.)
You should also do something like this for the Flakpanzer once we get work up and running again, not much has changed over the past year but it should be interesting none the less to get an update from us on how the Flakpanzer is doing, nice video as always
We are very happy with your work. it's being 3d printed now.
@@jackofalltrades164 glad to be of help Robby, anytime you need help from us, just ask
Road to 100k!
I like the Mark 8... think you'll be doing a vid in the future...?? would love to ec Swing with you.....
Awesome
Just found your channel and am enjoying your videos. I would like them better if you spent more time on camera. :)
Wooooot!
I fell in love with you as a boy. Such a combination of beauty and weapons, you rarely see. But seeing your videos and you in them, I went crazy how beautiful you are. Come to Ukraine, Zaporozhye. We have a museum of military equipment and not one. You are magnestic
this is lowkey creepy
Well the tracks are magnesium steel they'll go brittle as hell with the age of corrosion! The harness properties could be reached doing this
Can't watch the tank ruied by fire... 😭
Nashorn is interesting
I think I'll take it out for a blitz game tomorrow.
hi can you tell me do you no of any books that will give me good pictures of german 88mm tank shells and the boxes that they came in ?it would be a big help .thanks barry
Should have the Phoenix written in german on the barrel after its revival from fire
This is the Way.
This is the way
Are the t-shirts and sweatshirts available for sale? Any chance of a link please?
E-mail them at nashornfund@gmail.com for an order form!
@@Sofilein Thank you - this project deserves a little support. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
@Sofilein Yes Sofi thanks for sharing😀
@@Sofilein thanks for all you do! Just returned fro the armored museum in Danbury, Va after a wonderful time with my Russian nephew and we were able to have a lengthy conversation with 2 M-60A2 tank crewmembers in front of thier tank that my nephew really enjoyed. Gave my nephew some great insight. He enjoyed the T-34 diorama they had set up and had i known in advance to set up the the in tank tour he would have been floating out of there. But next time.
Love your video and hope to meet you sometime in the future. Keep up the collaboration with Hillary as he is a finite resource and the chieftain as well.
Hello there
FEGELEIN was your brother ?? xD
Where could i get a 1:35 scale model of that model of the Nashorn

Dragon, Tamiya and AFV Club all make versions of the Nashorn depending if you want an early version or late. Tamiya and AFV do the late and Dragon do an early. If you want ease of build the go Tamiya, if you want a kit of 1000 parts go Dragon or AFV Club. As Sofi said above check out Amazon or your local hobby shop. Cheers! 👍
