The Tiger I was the first German heavy tank, making its debut on the Eastern Front near Leningrad in the autumn of 1942 and immediately gained fame as a new symbol of armored might. It played a key role in the Battle of Kursk as well as in operations on the Western and Southern Fronts (North Africa). Its 88mm KwK 36 L/56 gun was able to effectively destroy Allied tanks from long distances. The powerful armor, in places up to 120 mm thick, gave it significant protection, although its great weight (over 54 tons) and complex, maintenance-intensive mechanics caused frequent breakdowns and troublesome servicing, especially in combat conditions on the steppes and desert.
