Tiger 1 in service
The Tiger 1 entered service in autumn 1942 and was among the most advanced tanks of its day. Its firepower and armour made it a formidable opponent, but the design was also complex and expensive to manufacture. That limited production, and only 1,347 Tiger 1s were built between 1942 and 1944.
Marking options
- vehicle commanded by Michael Wittmann, schwere Panzer-Abteilung 101, Normandy, France, 1944 (A)
- 2. Kompanie, schwere Panzer-Abteilung 501, Byelorussia, 1943–44 (B)
These options represent two wartime Tiger 1s from different units and theatres.
