Das Werk DW35018 VK45.01(P) "Rammtiger" 1/35 – Plastic Model Kit

The Das Werk DW35018 VK45.01(P) "Rammtiger" 1/35 scale model is a unique offering for advanced modelers and World War II history enthusiasts, especially those fascinated by unusual German armored vehicles. This plastic assembly kit represents the German prototype engineering tank known as Rammtiger, developed by Porsche based on the VK45.01(P) chassis.

Historical Information

The VK45.01(P) "Rammtiger" is the result of an experimental approach by German designers to anti-tank and engineering challenges during World War II. The main concept of the design was focused on ramming obstacles and fortifications—instead of a traditional armed turret, the vehicle featured a heavily armored frontal plate. Only a few units were planned for production; however, the program did not progress beyond the prototype phase, and it is believed that only two such vehicles were manufactured. The Rammtiger never officially saw frontline service, but its silhouette remains one of the most intriguing themes in the history of German armored weaponry.
