Why this kit matters
The King Tiger, officially known as the Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B, was one of the most formidable tanks of World War II. With its thick armour and powerful gun, it was a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. This scale model captures the essence of the King Tiger's production turret, known for its distinctive design and engineering prowess.
The King Tiger was primarily deployed by the German Army in 1944 and 1945. Its imposing presence and advanced technology made it a significant player in tank warfare, although its heavy weight and mechanical complexity posed challenges. This model serves as a tribute to this iconic vehicle, allowing builders to appreciate its historical significance.
