Brief historical overview

The Panzerkampfwagen VI Sd.Kfz.182 King Tiger (Königstiger), also known as the Tiger II, was a super-heavy tank used by German forces in the closing years of World War II (1944–1945). It was mainly deployed on the Eastern and Western fronts, distinguished by its powerful main armament—the KwK 43 L/71 88 mm gun—and thick armor, which effectively protected the crew from most Allied anti-tank rounds. This version of the kit features the vehicle with the characteristic production turret, commonly referred to as the "serien turm".
