In January 1945, the Entwicklungskommission decided that this design was still worth pursuing as it again filled a vacancy in the Panzerprogramm for vehicles in the 25 ton class.<br />A drawing shows the E 25 outfitted with a 7.5 cm Pak L\/70 gun mounted on the glacis plate.<br />Selection of a weapon for series production hadn't been determined in January 1945.<br />Only a few Versuchsfahrgestell were ordered.<br />The design had not proceeded far enough to consider mass production.<br />According to Oberbaurat Kniepkamp in postwar interrogations, three E 25 hulls were reported to be at Alkett in Berlin-Spandau, but they were no longer there when Western Allies went to investigate.<br /><br />Package Included:<br />1 X German Entwicklungsfahrzeug E 25
