When was the Tiger Tank developed Tiger Heavy Tank (German: Panzerkampfwagen Tigern, German codename: SD.)kfz.181, also known as: Tiger Tank Tiger Tank Tank No. 6) was a heavy tank used by the German ** team in World War II.
The development of the Tiger heavy tank began in 1937, when the German companies Krupp and Henschel began to design a heavy tank to meet the needs of the Wehrmacht. In 1940, the Wehrmacht finally chose the Henschel design and named it the Tiger Heavy Tank. Subsequently, in 1941, the Henschel company began production of Tiger heavy tanks, which were delivered to the Wehrmacht the following year.
The Tiger heavy tank has been active throughout the war since it entered service with the Wehrmacht in 1942. The Tiger heavy tank had an outstanding record in the war, especially against the various tanks of the British army, because when fighting against the British and other Allied tanks, the 88mm shells of the Tiger heavy tank could easily penetrate the armor of the Allied tanks, while the shells of the Allied tanks could hardly cause effective damage to the frontal armor of the Tiger heavy tanks. However, the Tiger heavy tank also had its drawbacks, the main being its weight and mobility. Due to its weight and size, the Tiger heavy tank was less maneuverable on difficult terrain and was easily a target for enemy fire in battle. In addition, its production costs are quite high, mainly because of the complexity of its manufacturing process. The Tiger heavy tank was a very effective ** system in World War II, and its powerful firepower and armor gave it a great advantage on the battlefield. Although it had some shortcomings, its performance in the war was still widely praised and had a profound impact on later tank design. Who is stronger, Tiger tank or T34 tank
