Question: The Russian tank has the number '206' stamped in its machine gun assembly, but mirrored. Is the picture flipped, or is it something ordinary and has no significance at all?

Directed by: Joseph Vilsmaier
Starring: Thomas Kretschmann, Dana Vavrova, Dominique Horwitz, Jochen Nickel, Sebastian Rudolph
Factual error: The Germans encounter three enemy tanks, all Russian T-34/85 models that were introduced in mid-1944. Additionally, they shoot at the tanks with an anti-tank gun which is painted sand colour. This colour was not introduced until Feb 1943.
Fritz: Have you ever been in the desert? It's sickening there. It's so hot that sweat pours down your body all the time. You feel like you melt like a piece of butter. I'll tell you the desert is shit. Except for the stars...they're so close. You know, Hans?
Trivia: The scene where the Soviet tank fires its main cannon, cutting a German soldier in half, was inspired by an actual incident in William Craig's book about the battle of Stalingrad, "Enemy at the Gates."





Answer: There are multiple Russian tanks in the movie. You have to be more specific about when.
