Takom 1/35 German Army WWII Tiger I "Experimental Project" Heavy Tank # 02192

The Tiger I Experimental Project was a development phase for the iconic Tiger I heavy tank used by the German Army during World War II.

Initiated in the late 1930s and early 1940s, the project aimed to create a breakthrough tank with superior firepower, armor, and mobility.

Early prototypes were designed by Henschel and Porsche, leading to competitive trials.

The tank's development prioritized a powerful 88mm gun and thick frontal armor, setting new standards in tank warfare.

Challenges during the experimental phase included mechanical reliability and production complexity.

The finalized design, based on Henschel's prototype, became the legendary Tiger I, a formidable presence on WWII battlefields.
