Adorn Your Shelf with the Imposing Tiger I¡@Equipped with an
awesome 56 caliber 88mm main gun, 100mm thick armor at the front, 80mm armor on
the sides, and a 650hp Maybach engine, the Tiger I featured unparalleled power
and dominance. Able to take out a Soviet T34 or U.S. M4 Sherman in one shot, the
awesome power of the Tiger I was greatly feared by the Allied forces. Henschel
produced over 1,300 Tiger I heavy tanks during WWII, ranging from initial
production to modified late production models. The approximately 200 models
produced from November 1942 to June 1943 are characterized as early production,
possessing distinctive features like large cylinder shaped cupola with smoke
discharger and pistol ports on the turret. The Tiger I first saw action against
the Soviets near Leningrad, and went on to serve on the Eastern, Western,
Italian and African fronts.
