The Fortschritt E 162, also known as the LBH 52 Kombinus, is a tractor-drawn combine harvester, made by the East-German manufacturer VEB Mähdrescherwerk Boschofswerda/Singwitz in Singwitz, from 1952 until 1956. In total, 54 were built.[1] The E 162 proved to be an unreliable combine, and it was soon replaced by the Fortschritt E 170 series.[2]
