An example of the development of tank destroyer technology throughout the war are the Marder III and Hetzer vehicle, that were very different in spite of being based on the same chassis: Marder was straightforwardly an anti-tank gun on tracks whereas Hetzer traded some firepower ( its Pak 39, designed to operate within the confines of a fully-armored fighting compartment, fires the same projectiles from a reduced propellant charge compared to Marder's Pak 40 ) for better armor protection and ease of battlefield concealment.

Some vehicles mount more machine guns ; for example on the German Marder, one machine gun fires from the rear of the vehicle, and the Russian BMP-3 has two machine guns mounted in the hull facing forward.

One was created for the film using the chassis of a Czech-built Panzer 38 ( t ) tank similar to the construction of the original Marder III ; the other was a cosmetically modified Swedish SAV m / 43 assault gun, which also used the 38 ( t ) chassis.

In late 1993, the partners hired independent cartoonist Larry Marder to act as " executive director " for the publisher ; Valentino quipped in interviews that Marder's job was literally to " direct the executives " ( i. e. the Image partners ).

Marder developed better financial planning and had some success in disciplining creators to deliver their work on time, in part by insisting that retail orders for new issues would not be solicited until the books had been illustrated, usually ensuring they would be ready to ship when promised.

Marder has performed at most major theaters in the United States as opening act for Jerry Seinfeld.

Marder wrote for Bill Maher, Jay Leno, David Letterman, and the talk show Night Stand with Dick Dietrick.

In 2012, a promo video for Seinfeld's widely successful new Internet series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee features Barry Marder and will debut on September 6, 2012.

Richman is fired and later arrested in Singapore for narcotics possession, while Marder leaves the company, supposedly on good terms.

* John Marder – Chief Operating Officer at the Norton Plant in Burbank, California ; Also oversaw the production project for the N-22 widebody that was involved in the incident.

The Wespe first saw combat in 1943 on the Eastern Front, and proved so successful that Hitler ordered all Panzer II production to be reserved for the Wespe alone, dropping other projects such as the Marder II self-propelled anti-tank gun.

Its products include the TAM medium tank for Argentina, the Mexican Henschel APC and the Marder infantry fighting vehicle.

The Marder ( German for " marten ") is a German infantry fighting vehicle operated by the German Army as the main weapon of the Panzergrenadiere ( mechanized infantry ) from the 1970s through the present day.

A simplified version of the Marder is also employed as an infantry fighting vehicle, mortar carrier and rocket launcher by the Argentinian Army, realising most of the versions originally planned for the Bundeswehr and later abandoned due to costs and / or the availability of cheap alternatives like the M106 mortar carrier.

The Marder is also used as a carrier for the Roland air defence system.

The Kanonenjagdpanzer build for Belgium are a hybrid between the original Bundeswehr version and Marder parts.

** Marder 1 A1 (+) ( 1979 – 1982 ): dual feed for 20 mm cannon enabling choice of ammunition, night vision equipment including image intensifiers and a thermal imager.

*** Marder 1 A5A1 ( 2010-2011 ): Equipped with air conditioning system, jammer for IED-protection and multi-spectral camouflage.

With the first unit delivered in Summer 1971, the Marder IFV remained untested in combat for 38 years until July 2009 when they defended a German combat outpost against the Taliban in Chahar Dara district of Afghanistan's Kunduz Province, killing and wounding scores.

Several other French and Polish tanks were also used as a conversion base for the Marder I, including the Hotchkiss H39 and FCM 36, though these were only built in small numbers.

While the Marder IFVs are replaced by the Puma, the MILAN will similarly be replaced by the Spike-ATGM for mounted and dismounted use.

Beanworld creator Larry Marder credits her positive review therein for the title's success .< ref >

The two vehicles described in the film as Panzers were meant to portray Marder III tank destroyers.

They created many examples of lightly armored self-propelled anti-tank guns using captured French equipment ( example Marder I ), their own obsolete light tank chassis ( Marder II ), or ex-Czech chassis ( Marder III ).

The Jagdpanzer 38 ( t ) fitted into the lighter category of German tank destroyers that began with the Panzerjäger I, continued with the Marder series and ended with the Jagdpanzer 38 ( t ).

With this gun the Jagdpanzer 38 ( t ) was able to destroy nearly all allied or soviet tank types in service at long ranges ( except heavy tanks ) and its fully enclosed armor protection made it a safer vehicle to crew than the open-topped Marder II or Marder III series.

Therefore the somewhat ad hoc design, Ferdinand supplanted the previous light tank destroyers, like Marder II and Marder III, in the offensive role.

This variant was similar to Marder tank destroyer series in that it was a weakly armored, open-topped antitank vehicle that could not engage enemy armor head to head, and it was a stop-gap measure.

The Marder II was a German tank destroyer of World War II based on the Panzer II chassis.

The Germans re-using captured 76. 2 mm Russian field cannon on Czechoslovak Praga tank chassis to form the potent and cost effective Marder tank destroyer.

The Marder I " Marten " ( SdKfz 135 ) was a German World War II tank destroyer, armed with the 75 mm anti-tank gun.

The first Lorraine-based Marder I vehicles were sent to the Eastern Front in 1942 to serve in the Panzerjäger ( tank destroyer ) units of infantry divisions.

The designation Sturm ( assault ) reflected the division's increased strength, which eventually included subordinate Sturmgeschutz ( assault gun ) Heavy Mortar and Nebelwerfer ( rocket launcher ) battalions and a tank destroyer unit equipped with Marder IIs, as well as extra regimental artillery support.

Developed as part of the rebuilding of Germany's armoured fighting vehicle industry, the Marder has proven to be a successful and solid infantry fighting vehicle design.

The Marder is a relatively conventional design, with the driver sitting at the front left side of the hull with the engine to his right.

The other alternate vehicle was the West German Marder which mounted a 20 mm autocannon, two 7. 62 mm MGs, relatively strong steel armor, and full CBR protection.

Marder also co-wrote the Dreamworks film Bee Movie, with Seinfeld, Spike Feresten, and Andy Robin, which was released on November 2, 2007.

The result was the Marder series, which were armed with either the new 7. 5 cm Pak 40 anti-tank guns or captured Soviet 7. 62 cm F-22 Model 1936 field guns, large numbers of which had been acquired early in the war.

In early version of the Marder this infantry man had a hatch which opened to the right and a periscope that could be rotated through 360 degrees, this hatch was removed in the 1A3 variant onwards.

The Marder is powered by an MTU MB Ea-500 six-cylinder liquid cooled diesel engine which develops approximately 600 horsepower at 2, 200 rpm.

The Marder is propelled by a Diehl track which can be fitted with rubber road pads.

Most Marder I's were built on the base of the Tracteur Blindé 37L ( Lorraine ), a French artillery tractor / armoured personnel carrier of which the Germans had acquired more than three hundred after the Fall of France in 1940.

The result was the Marder series, which were armed with either the 75 mm PaK 40 anti-tank guns or the captured Soviet 76. 2mm F-22 Model 1936 divisional field gun, of which large numbers had been captured.

Today the main Infantry fighting vehicle of the Panzergrenadier in Germany is the Marder IFV which is going to be replaced by the Puma IFV beginning in 2010.

The MILAN-ATGM is used by dismounted Panzergrenadier fireteams ( which consist of six soldiers due to the number of soldiers carried by the Marder and Puma IFVs ), as well as attached to the Marder turret to provide the IFV with enhanced anti-armour capabilities.

* Brazil purchased 4 Roland 2 systems on the German Marder chassis along with 50 missiles, all of which were retired from service in 2001.

Beanworld features stories about the life and times of the Beans, minimalistic characters which Marder has been drawing since childhood.
