The Panzerkampfwagen VI "Tiger" was a heavy German tank that was manufactured by the sole manufacturer Henschel in Kassel from 1942 to 1944 and used by the Wehrmacht from late summer 1942. Due to its powerful main weapon and high armor protection, the Tiger was one of the most combat-effective tanks of the Second World War.
In addition to its conventional shape - without sloped armor - serious disadvantages were the complex production, its underpowered nature, the short range and a technology that was prone to failure, combined with a high need for repairs, which significantly limited the mobility of the tank. As a result, more vehicles were lost due to mechanical defects and self-destruction than due to direct enemy action. Although the strategic importance of the Tiger was low due to the low production number of only 1,350 units, it is one of the most famous tanks of the Second World War.
