A further Jagdtiger model in the Dragon Armor range. Again, it portrays a Henschel Production version, though this time with a different three-color camouflage scheme. It is uncertain what unit this vehicle belongs to even though there were only two schwere Panzerjager Abteilung Jagdtiger units ever formed. It is known that this tank destroyer saw combat in Austria in 1945. Only 77 of these behemoths were produced between July 1944 and March 1945, but fortunately this model is much more widely available! The model wears a coating of zimmerit, which Dragon's designers have ensured is replicated to scale. There is also a magnificently modeled crane installed on the roof, a device used to raise the roof plate to allow maintenance of the interior to take place. With its 12.8cm PaK44 L/55 gun, this was one formidable opponent on the battlefield. Dragon has also ensured it is one impressive model in 1/72 scale too!
The Panzerjager Tiger or Jagdtiger was a tank destroyer that saw service from late 1944 to the end of the war on both the Western Front and Eastern Front. It was the heaviest armored fighting vehicle to see service during World War II. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
Dragon's 1:72 scale Jadgtiger is constructed entirely from plastic, which allows for the finest level of detailing. Cutting torch marks can be seen at the ends of the casements on the armor plates, and rivets, bolts and handles are visible on the superstructure's hatches and thinly hollowed engine vents. The hull features separately applied headlights, separately applied track equipment and the visible barrel of the internal machine gun. Releases in this series have a simulated Zimmerit coating or battlefield equipment and spare tracks mounted on hooks to the sides of the casement. Available models include the Henschel with nine road wheels and the Porsche version with eight.
