Forces of Valor German Heavy Tank PzKpfw Tiger Ausf. E RC Military Vehicle

German Heavy Tank PzKpfw Tiger Ausf. E, Tiger I Late production model, sPz Abt. 505, Nr. 312 Poland 1943–44

The German Tiger I tank was one of the most fearful war machines created by the Germans during World War II. One of the most noticeable features of the Tiger I was the 56-caliber long 88mm KwK36 main gun, it could easily penetrate through the side hull of a U.S. Sherman tank.

The Tiger I was first deployed in the African and European campaigns of WW2, and served until the very end of the war. During the 36 months the Tiger I served, it was regularly modified to enhance its durability, handling and speed. Depending when a particular Tiger I went into production it could be classified under Early, Mid and Late Production, each representing a jump in the design and capabilities of the tank, for instance:

• Early Tigers were equipped with dished steel wheels and rubber tires, however after entering service and proving to be unreliable and high in maintenance they were eventually replaced in January 1944 with solid steel versions.
• The late production model eventually ended up being coated with an anti-magnetic paste known as "Zimmerit". The purpose of which was to create a barrier between the steel-rimmed wheels and a potentially explosive mine, giving the Tiger I access to battlefields inaccessible to other tanks and infantry.
