That's basically the effect they had on the allied tank crews. The tactic used to attempt to take on one Tiger, was to roll in with 4-5 Shermans, and before they were destroyed, hopefully one of them would be able to get into a position where they could hit the Tiger in the back. Trading 4 Shermans for 1 Tiger was deemed a viable trade-off, and they were right, since 50.000 Shermans were produced and only 1300 Tigers.

The double baffle muzzle break reduces recoil forces by 70%. Fascinating. Thanks for including that bit of ancillary data, Richard. It explains a lot. Watch Tigers on video and notice what stable gun platforms they make compared to contemporaries. Most tanks rock when the gun fires. This affects accuracy. Tiger barely budges. Easier for the Tiger gunner to maintain lay during sustained duels. That's a big deal.
@mrblack8886 жыл бұрын
Modern guns have vastly bigger propellant charges for their ammunition, an 88 is comparatively puny. Put a modern 120mm gun in a Tiger turret and not only will the tank rock like a boat in a storm, the whole turret would probably be torn apart by the force of the recoil.

Interesting how I've never seen a game version of the Tiger with the driver's visor-shield down. People think they were blind without it. Also the Saving Private Ryan movie making folks think you could just run up to the tank and shoot "through" the visor...throught the very thick bullet-proof glass. While I think the Tiger was -overall speaking- a mistake (the Panther was more on the money, had they just allowed it more testing before release onto the battlefield, mid- and late versions were excellent). THAT said, of course and sitting in the shadow of the Tiger, is the Panzer IV...with the Pak 40, gun depression and mobility it was quite good for a late 1930's tank. ALTHOUGH, the Panther actually was cheaper (overall) and produced in greater numbers than the Panzer IV over shorter period of time. That's why, overall, I always think of the Panther as the best German tank of ww2, despite its flaws. Since those flaws were in a way artificial (or in better terms, stupidity of Hitler who hampered the production of the STG44).

It was captured relatively undamaged.

To answer your first question, it's the scale. We don't have an accurate scale in game to compare it against for RL purposes. In order for you to see just how big the gun is, you'd need to see a properly scaled person next to it. Of course, it doesn't help that most of the other countries (brittain excluded) have larger calibur guns at that tier than the Tiger. IS, IS-2, AMX M4 45 all have much bigger guns, calibur-wise and visbility-wise. Couple that with the fact they nerfed the 88.

Yeah, but when I say 'wreck', I don't mean 'blown to bits'. It's likely the internals of the tank would be pretty much gutted from a direct hit to the roof by an artillery shell. Also, if it somehow got lucky and detonated in front of a weakpoint in the hull, like say the drivers hatch, there's a chance of penetration there. Don't get me wrong, I love the Tiger I, and I don't think WoT does it justice. Despite the negative votes on my comment, I'm really only playing devil's advocate here.

German tanks during WW II weren't always the best, that's really just a myth.

Combat records show that more Tigers, & probably King Tiger as well, were lost to mechanical failures and their crews scuttling them than to enemy action.

All of the WWII tanks had massive problems. The only reliable one was the M4 Sherman. It was out gunned by every thing in the European theater. The much lauded Russian tanks were loaded with mechanical problems. They were rushed off an assembly line manned with poorly trained Russian villagers and manned by untrained peasants. Most T-34's did not even have room for a commander. The gunner took that job. The myth of German armor being over engineered crap abandoned on the battle field comes from the Panther being rushed into the battle of Kursk. The tanks abandoned during the German retreat were mostly due to being out of fuel. When the Germans had their support units available they had no trouble repairing or recovering their armor. If you want to know how good Russian armor really was then buy a Russian car and drive it cross country. Then try a German one.

Greg Stephens Tigers were the same way though, reading after action reports of the Tiger in action more were lost due to mechanical failure than enemy action. This was due to an engine and transmission that were unsuited for a tank that weighed as much as the Tiger, something that was never corrected and the problem continued with the King Tiger which used the same underpowered engine and transmission in an even heavier tank.

they need to make a premium tiger in wot and have it get premium match making and fight similar tanks it did in ww2. Michael Whittmann should be the tank commander. that be a tank id purchase without hesitation. wot doesnt give the tiger the respect it had and its shear devastating factor on the battlefield. wot please consider

Not Michael Wittman, he was cocky. Otto Carius or Joachim Peiper more so
@nickkorte7 жыл бұрын
Nathan Peterson He was cocky for a reason, single handly took entire tank formations by himself and his crew. He was one of the greatest tank commanders ever.

With the rubber seals... why bother when you have ventilation holes and slits for viewports etc? I'm guessing all of these things could be sealed as well?

Every opening was rubber-sealed.

Gunports for small arms in case Lycon mount the tank,and a sunshade on the Observation Port to protect the Vampires crewing the beast from the sunlight.

The only problem was the money, the Tiger had around a 5-7 kdr on t-34 and shermans so the tank itself was a king in the battlefield

- consumption, yeah they indeed drank a lot of fuel, that was true, but they hardly had to move, because they could easily take down enemy tanks from a widespread range distance of 2km.

What's with the spare tracks on the glacis plate? Are those emergency-only, narrower-than-standard track segments? They look smaller and different.
@daveybyrden39363 жыл бұрын
They were standard tracks. The ones on "131" are replicas made for the museum, but they're the same shape as the ones on the wheels.
