A reconstruction of the German remote-controlled tracked demolition charge, the “Goliath” (Leichter Ladungsträger Goliath, Sd.Kfz. 302). The Goliath was a small, lightly armored (plating up to 5 mm thick) tracked vehicle; the Sd.Kfz. 302 variant was powered by two electric motors and carried 60 kg of explosives. It was manufactured by the Borgward company between 1942 and 1944, with approximately 2,650 units produced in total. Due to high production costs, it was eventually replaced by the Sd.Kfz. 303 model, which was powered by an internal combustion engine.
Goliaths were deployed in combat during various engagements, including the battle for Sevastopol, the Warsaw Uprising, and the Battle of Anzio.
