One main track had snapped and three road wheels had been blown apart. From a distance the Tiger still looked every bit as menacing as it had always been, this tank though had seen its fair share of battle and had the scars on its armour to prove it.
The crew of the Tiger was huddled together dead in their steel tomb. After a successful campaign the tank lay lifeless in a field flames flickering from the engine compartment after being hit in the rear several times. A testament to its armour that it had survived so many hits.
One of the most feared weapons of World War II, the Tiger tank was a formidable tank at the forefront of tank design in its day. The Tiger nickname given by Ferdinand Porsche dominated the battlefields of Europe with its astonishing size, heavy armour, speed and firepower when it arrived in 1942.
