And, as Military History Visualized reveals, an effective tank-though perhaps not as great as history tends to portray it. The Tiger is one of the most revered tanks of the war, if not in the entirety of tank history. First fielded in 1942, the Tiger was meant to forge breakthroughs on the battlefield, destroying enemy tanks at long range while shrugging off hits from lesser Allied anti-tank guns. The final version of the tank weighed 54 tons, had a crew of five, and was equipped with a mobile version of the famous 88-millimeter anti-tank gun.
The Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger tank was a German heavy tank that served on the Eastern Front, Western Front, and in North Africa during World War II. A new video at the YouTube channel Military History Visualized breaks down actual data on the German Tiger tanks.
