Many historical mistakes in the article

Twin 88 and Krokodil are modelers kit-bash, plus a lot of other small mistakes. If you're interested I can help rewriting the articles with better historical accuracy, contact me at zarax999@hotmail.com — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.140.2.6 (talk) 09:42, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

The tone of your edits weren't encyclopaedic, and were unreferenced, so I have reverted them. However, reliably sourced corrections would be welcome. (Hohum ^@) 18:12, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Removing citation-less information.

The entire second half of the E-75 section is simply conjecture based on Wargaming's World of Tanks. It claims the E-75 was to mount a 88L/100 or a 105mm cannon, despite the fact that neither of these cannons exist, and that they are nowhere on the actual blueprints of the E-Series. I suggest removing this information, as it is false. 62.235.239.89 (talk) 15:22, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Seconded. E-5 tank never existed, the other versions did but nearly all information is citation-less. The image provided with the article is incorrect and contains the fantasy E-5. I suggest removing the entire article as a whole and start anew. SabasNL (talk) 03:54, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

8,8cm Kw.K. L/71

Along the text about these experimental german tanks the text on the E-50 version mentions a new version/model of the 88mm L/71. I am on the final run to assemble a model of this tank, but the barrel supplied inside the box seem to "speak" about a longer version of this gun . For sure not a L/71. Can anybody give me info about it??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gottardi 1943 (talk • contribs) 10:24, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

Basically they are talking about a Fantasy version of the long 88 called the LONGER 88 (or in other words, they are using a fake gun from world of tanks. 49.185.40.229 (talk) 22:51, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Tiger III turret

'Other sources however, indicate that the E-75 was to be fitted with the much larger Tiger II turret, which could be adapted to accommodate an even more powerful high velocity 10.5 cm gun.' This doesn't make sense, it literally states it would have replaced the turret with the same turret. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.177.101 (talk) 00:22, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Reread it again. It mentions just before that that "According to some sources, the similarities between the E-50 and the E-75 went further; they were to be equipped with the same turret and 88 mm L/71 or L/100 gun", a turret that in the E-50 section says would be a newly designed one. Using the Tiger II turret would not be the same as using a completely new turret that was also mounted on the E-50. 66.69.219.227 (talk) 14:10, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

Possible Gundam Parallel

Something that might be interesting to add at the end is that in Mobile Suit Gundam, the United Maintenance Plan is pretty analogous to the Entwicklung series. It consists of a bunch of mobile suits being either redesigned or new designs introduced that standardized parts, production tooling, and simplified production as well, but came far too late in the One Year War to make a difference for Zeon, which is in some ways a Nazi Germany expy. 66.69.219.227 (talk) 14:29, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
