History:
Introduced in 1942, the Tiger I was Germany’s answer to increasingly powerful Allied tanks. The early production variants were first used on the Eastern Front and in North Africa. Armed with the powerful 8.8cm KwK 36 gun and protected by thick frontal armour, the Tiger I quickly gained a reputation for invincibility. Despite its mechanical complexity, it left a lasting impression on tank warfare and continues to be a favourite among military historians and scale modellers.
