One things the Germans did with the Tigers was to drain the oil from the twin recuperators then remote fire the main gun the resultant unobstructed recoil forces drove the whole assembly backwards unchecked and destroyed the main gun that way or pack the tank with explosives and boom!

I think that whole procedure went the way of the Do-do as war went on, many were captured just run out of gas.
