Very formidable heavy tank. Captured in Tunisia
during WWII African Campaign. Perhaps, the most
famous tank of WWII. Designed to carry the famous
88mm gun. Overlapping road wheels became clogged
in mud and snow. This tank dwarfed all previous German
tanks. It was designed as a heavy assault tank. Fought in
Russia, Africa and the defense of Berlin . Slow with heavy

fuel consumption , but the heavy armor and powerful gun
made it a dangerous adversary. Only 1354 produced.
