This /5 or newer Heinrich was interesting for two reasons: One, the indent in the tunnel area, and Two, the ID tag on the bottom. This tank was made by Werner Reinschluessel, who took over tank production in 1981from Karl Heinrich.
ID tag on lower left- Werner Reinschluessel (RW on the tag) made these tanks from 1981 to 1984, when he transferred the rights over to Jeckel. Code 208 indicates that this tank is made for R80 G/S, and holds 40 liters. The number 743 is the serial number.
