The Tiger I was one of the most recognizable heavy tanks produced by the Third Reich. Introduced to the front in 1942, it played a significant role in combat operations on the Eastern, Western, and North African fronts. The characteristic mesh covers protecting the air inlets to the radiators were a typical element that increased the vehicle’s survivability in harsh combat conditions and are an inseparable part of a faithfully recreated replica.

The Aber 35G31 set includes extremely thin and precisely made photo-etched meshes intended for installation on the grilles above the engine fans. These meshes perfectly imitate the real covers used on Tiger I tanks, guaranteeing historical accuracy and an enhanced appearance for any model while maintaining the scale thickness of the elements. The stainless steel used in the set’s production ensures durability, resistance to deformation, and a high level of detail reproduction.

The set does not include plastic parts or resin elements but is an ideal addition to models from brands such as Tamiya, Dragon, Zvezda, or Italeri.
