This thing was an absolute beast. basically unbeatable from the front. Your only chance of taking it out was to flank it and even then you'd have to be pretty close to penetrate the 80mm of slightly sloped armor. it was rushed into production which really wrecked havoc on quality control. Also the crew was hastily trained and put into action which only served to increase breakdown problems as an inexperienced driver could easily overwork the engine and cause problems. Otto Carius who survived the war and died at the age of 92 in 2015 was unique for his experience as commander of a Tiger 1 a Tiger 2 and finally a Jagdtiger, he accumulated 150 tank kills by the end of the war. In his book he wrote that in one engagement a Jagdtiger shot through a house, clean to the other side and destroyed a Sherman hiding behind it. He also states that he and this team of Jagdtigers laid out an ambush for a group of Shermans they knew where heading their way. He states that it would have been a massacre for the Americans however the citizens of a nearby town warned the Americans not to advance because "very big German tanks" where waiting for them, lol. This forced Otto and his team to retreat so as not to be flanked. He wrote that in the few engagements he was in the Jagdtiger he lost count of hits he heard hitting the tank, none penetrated. Also according to Wiki the Battle of Remagen - "When they finally engaged the American armor around Herborn, Jagdtigers were able to attack U.S. tanks at up to 3 kilometers (1.9 mi) and reported destroying 30 units." This was perhaps the only time the Jagdtiger was able to utilize its true strength, long range destruction while being immune to anything the allies could muster.

Both the side and the rear had 80 mm of armor with the sides being at a slight angle making the 80mm more like 85-90 mm of armor. 85mm of armor is not vulnerable to common allied anti tank weapons. The Bazooka being the most common of them all could only penetrate roughly 75 mm and this only when conditions where ideal, close range, and non slopped armor. And the Sherman tank would need to close to within 250 meters to penetrate the side of a Jagdtiger. so basically the Jagdtiger was very well protected from the sides and even the back had 80mm of armor, although not slopped.

UFCMania155 Ok, I hope you are ready. First off, German tanks were EXTREMELY unreliable. More Jagdtigers were disabled due to breaking down than to enemy fire. That is a major issue. The Tiger I was only really the kind of the battlefield for 1-2 years, and after 1943 most american tanks and some british tanks aswell as nearly all russian tanks could destroy them. You have to remember that a Tiger I, Tiger II, or Jagdtiger/Jagdpanther etc were a novelty on the battlefield and were rarely seen. Germany's mass produced Panther II was about equal the the US' M4A3E8 and basically everything from the M4A3 family and also the M4A2 family. An E8 could easily kite and kill a Tiger I. There is also video of a M26 Pershing destroying a Panther. The only real reason Germany had superior tanks for a while was because they had been preparing for a war and as such had been designing tanks, whilst the US had to usher the M4 into production as soon as possible in response.

They really should have mentioned that the upper glacis plate had 150mm of armor angled at 50° which was something like 230 mm or effective armor and the lower glacis plate had 100mm angled at 50° which is comparable to a plate of 155mm thickness without angles. There was barely any gun in WW2 that could really penetrate such values.

@CrniWuk8 жыл бұрын
Inertia Gaming Hmm, theoretically, probably. But the SU-152 was a bunker-burster really. It was not really a very accurate gun and the low ammo and reload made it less suited for tank hunting. It was usually used in batteries. The Ferdinand though had all around flat armor. Though a 152mm shell sure can mess up your day pretty good, even in a Tiger 2. Still. There is a chance that the AP shell might ricochet from the front of the Tiger 2. Albeit if the distance is high enough the 152mm gun might hit the armor at a very high trajectory and thus having a better chance of penetration. That was one of the advantages of the IS2 with the 122mm gun fighting panthers on larger distances.
@barksinternally41758 жыл бұрын

+Inertia Gaming And that';s correct. From ALL of the anti-tank guns used in WW2 barely any was capable of defeating the front armor. I never said impossible :). The 152mm and eventually the soviet 122mm. But hardly the most common anti tank guns used in WW2, which have been 50mm, 75mm and 76mm guns. Albeit, the Tiger 2 and even more so the Jagdtiger have been equally rare opponents! I guess cracks in the armor was much more of a serious issue here than just penetration though. But both, the Tiger 2 and Jagdtiger have been far from invincible machines. As far as I know, several vehicles have been taken out in combat, at least one Tiger 2 in the Ardennes from hits and damages to the guns, tracks and several other key components, while moving trough Stravelot and La Gleize. The Jagdtiger also had always to recalibrate its optics after some time due to vibrations while driving and shooting.

So many facts are wrong in this. The Tiger II chassis was 150mm at the front, and thus was same on Jagdtiger. The IS-2 thus would have been incapable of penetrating the tank frontally at essentially all but point blank range, and in combat (IIRC), the Jagdtiger never was penetrated frontally. You also failed to specify the IS tank: The original IS (1) had only an 85mm gun, it was with the arrival of the IS-2 which mounted the 122mm gun.

ITT: Lots of people who thought like Hitler did: "Big = impressive = scary". Unfortunately, big gun + big armor = big associated problems. Big fuel consumption during a time when every drop was scarce, big cost when every Reichsmark was scarce, and big strain on supporting parts. Otto Carius said the things were virtually useless except in carefully prepared ambushes because the moment you started driving it cross country without the travel lock, the barrel started swinging and losing zero with the sights and needed to be re-sighted, which took several hours (not under fire, which they rarely were). Yes, I too would have loved to see a working Maus or even a working Ratte or Monster, but only as an appreciative student of history. As a military tactician, the things were just mindbogglingly stupid and wasteful, and proof that Hitler became a shittier general the longer the war went on. There was never anything in the US or Soviet arsenal that demanded such a beast, anyway. Not even the IS series. You don't kill a heavy vehicle with an even heavier one, you think asymmetrically. The Germans could have held on for another year if they'd made nothing but StuG III F/Gs.

It would be interesting to find out the relative cost of a Jagdtiger to a StuG III F/G. Suspect that the money/resources for one Jagdtiger would get you ten or more StuG, and the production time would be shorter. It wasn't that a Jagdtiger battalion was not a useful army asset, but having a lot more StuGs would vastly more useful. It is surprising to me that the Germans continue to use the under powered Maybach engine. They had developed compact aerial diesel engines in the 1930s, that had proved too sluggish to be useful for combat aircraft. But the issues that proved troublesome for combat aircraft - no being able to rev up quickly in combat situations - would be inconsequential for a Jagdtiger or Tiger II. The Junkers Jumo 205 had almost 900 hp and could have been adapted for a tank chassis. I have read that the Leyland Motors L60 tank engine used in the Chieftain was based on the Napier Culverin diesel engine that in turn was based on their licensed production of Junkers engines. So it was possible to do this.

The other JAgTIGER i got too see up close was in aberdeen proving ground Maryland which had a glancing hit in the frontal plate and a hit on the cannon but not penetrated.

hmm, unless i am mistaken, the IS (Iosef Stalin) tank had an 85mm cannon, the 122mm was on the IS-2.
@derkaiser98818 жыл бұрын
I believe that thats correct and the 122 on the is2 was able to penetrate the lower glaces of the Jagdtiger. Also before I forget isnt there a 88mm version of the Jagdtiger???
@PlacidDragon8 жыл бұрын
+Zach Young Been playing World of Tanks ? :) Yes, there was a Jagdtiger with an 88. Late in the war, hull production outstripped gun production, and since they needed every vehicle they could get as soon as possible, they put the 88mm gun of the Tiger II onto it rather than wait for the 128mm production to catch up.
@JamesVDBosch8 жыл бұрын
+PlacidDragon They also got the glacis armour wrong, the video would have you believe the upper plate is 100mm, while in reality it's 150mm thick.
@PlacidDragon8 жыл бұрын
+James V. D. Bosch Armor thickness depends on the model, as it changed throughout its lifespan. If i've understood it correctly, when the IS-2 first appeared, it had 120mm frontal armor. In the 1944 model upgrade however, this was reduced to 100mm, but with a uniform glacis plate angled at 60 degrees (so offering better protection than the 120mm of the previous model).
@JamesVDBosch8 жыл бұрын
PlacidDragon I was actually referring to the Jagdtiger's upper plate armour, at 5:18 they show the upper plate to be 100 millimetres.

The tanks were only useful because of the German retreat. Without the enemy actually coming towards the Germans, the Jagdtiger could never move the distances demanded of tanks earlier in the war. In operation Barbarossa, the early war German tanks could be relied upon to push the Soviet forces hundreds of kilometers before they had to wait for the infantry to move up. The Jagdtiger could barely be relied upon to move a few kilometers to get to a good defensive position, then it could do some maneuvering to aim the gun. But using it in Operation Barbarossa would have been impossible, without newer engine designs.
@charlesburgoyne-probyn60445 ай бұрын
Well commented about their ponderous bulk although most of tank movements from factory to bases and the front was by rail even in the Barbarossa era also later on the metal quality was less due to a lack of manganese and molybdenum etc hence transmission issues also the quality of fuel was generally poorer as the war progressed and lack of oils

I don't get why all the Jagdtigers where sent on the western front when the worst you would see is a firefly and the odd Pershing or two when they could have helped destroy the is-2 threat especially the mod 1944 with very sloped armour. Just Soviet ranks in general rather than the Sherman army. It would have cleaned up the soviets big stronk tanks easily. Not to mention their air superior wasn't as intense as the Americans who could wipe out the Jagdtigers before they could even get to combat.

they used the same engine as on the panther - a tank that weighed maybe 20 tons less. This thing could not get out of its own way. It was a big gun that occasionally was capable of movement, in between breakdowns. Also there were very few of them and it was still meat on the table for a typhoon ground attack aircraft firing rockets. And those the allies had, thousands of em.

Tanks in ww2 were basically designed as moving steel bunkers. Not for tank on tank combat. They mosly fired high explosive at emplavements but when enemy countries adopted the same tactics tank destroyers were designed. Hope that answers your question!
