1/72 King Tiger Porsche turret with 105 mm kWh L/68
Trumpeter 1/72 King Tiger Porsche turret with 105 mm KwK L/68 is a plastic kit of the German Tiger II heavy tank with the Porsche turret and a 10.5 cm gun. It contains over 50 parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Tiger II (Sd.Kfz. 182), also known as the Königstiger or King Tiger, was one of the heaviest tanks of the Second World War. The first 50 vehicles received the Porsche-designed turret with its distinctive rounded front, while later production used the Henschel turret. Fitting the 10.5 cm KwK L/68 gun never progressed beyond the project stage.
The Trumpeter kit in 1/72 scale consists of more than 50 parts according to the manufacturer. It offers an unusual version of the Tiger II that belongs in a collection of projects and unbuilt variants of German armour.
The finished model is about 17 cm long, and the modest part count makes for a quick build. The choice of camouflage also leaves room for interpretation, as the vehicle with this gun never entered service. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: Germany. Period: World War II.
