The most powerful tank of WW2, the King Tiger featured an 88mm gun and near impenetrable front armor. More than a match for its allied counterparts, this tank was one of the most feared weapons of the war. Even today, it stands as a hallmark of German armored engineering. Officially designated Panzerkampfwagen VI Sd.Kfz 182, the King Tiger entered service in 1944. This tank carried the awesome tank-killing 88mm main gun and had four-inch armor at its thickest. The system was crewed by five personnel and two machine guns were added for self-defense. The King Tiger's ability to destroy enemy tanks at extreme ranges yet remain impervious to those same tanks made it more than a match for any Allied tank. The sight of a King Tiger on the battlefield was terrifying and did great morale damage to Allied forces. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
