Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger Ausf.E,
often shortened to Tiger. It was an answer to the unexpectedly formidable
Soviet armour encountered in the initial months of the Axis invasion of the
Soviet Union, particularly the T-34 and the KV-1. The Tiger I is the first tank
mounting the 88 mm gun, in its initial armored fighting vehicle-dedicated
version, which in its Flak version had previously demonstrated its
effectiveness against both air and ground targets. During the course of the
war, the Tiger I saw combat on all German battlefronts. It was usually deployed
in independent tank battalions, which proved to be quite formidable. While the
Tiger I was feared by many of its opponents, it was over-engineered, used
expensive and labour intensive materials and production methods, and was
time-consuming to produce. Only 1,347 were built between August 1942 and August
1944.
