Anti-tank solution

Reverend might be refering to the caltrop-esque girders.

[PanzerJaeger]

What about the Panzerturm?

Seems to be good option :)
I have heard about another untypical method used by Poles during ww2.
Howitzers - most of tanks had thin armour on their top.

Artillery being used for it's purpose is not a Polish invention.

Those would be the hedgehogs he is referring to, not the poles that were often topped with mines and designed to tear, or blow open the bottoms of landing-craft.

Yeah, I was referring to the poles pictured above.

Yes , Howitzers (and heavy mortars) against tanks goes right back to the first world war , so it could hardly be called untypical .

Now this is a slightly untypical anti-tank solution...

I did not talk Poles invented it, only that Poles used it.
Anyway I have heard about similar situation into Italy.
Gun - about 220 milimetres - from Battleship hit next to Tiger Tank.
Explosion made big (30 metres) hole, however according to Allied soldiers tank itself
has not suffered serious damage. Good German job.
It was standing at the bottom of hole.
However whole crew cooked itself - there were too hot.

It says the photos were found in a report , not that they were part of a 1942 report . The earliest possible date would be after march 1944
