Captured machinery played significant role in the German armed forces in World War II, but this theme remains weakly illuminated. Sufficiently many photographs of captured technology reached our time, and this site is the attempt to generalize the obtained information and photographs imprinted the exploitation of trophies by German units. Word BEUTEPANZER, which became the basis of the name site is translated as captured tank (Beute - trophy, Panzer - tank).

With the work on the site were used the materials of different publications, electronic archives of photographs and the diverse moderately-priced information of network the Internet (sites, forums, electronical shops e.t.c.). In proportion to the search for information and work on the site it will be supplemented with references to the information sources, and photographs substituted by the more qualitative. This site is an attempt of noncommercial study of a question of volumes and spectrum of that used by the German parts of captured technology.
