Description
The Tiger II was the common name for the German 70-tonne World War II heavy tank, Tank VI, which was called the “King Tiger” by the American troops who saw it on the Normandy front.
In 1944, Krupp submitted a proposal to retrofit the King Tiger with a 105 mm kwk46 L/68 gun as a firepower enhancement.
However, the project was cancelled after only line drawings were drawn when it was pointed out that mounting a 105 mm gun in the King Tiger’s turret would require enlarging the turret for loading operations and modifications to the turret ring and undercarriage were necessary.
Main hatches can be opened or closed.
Etched and clear parts included
