The Panzerkampfwagen VI, or the Tiger, was a German heavy tank from the Second World War. Its characteristic shape is still recognizable all over the world. The vehicle itself has become legendary and is still present not only in historical materials, but also in pop culture. The first examples of the Tiger were delivered to the front near Leningrad and to Tunisia in August / September 1942. The tank designed and manufactured by Henschel was very modern and efficient. Unfortunately, its production consumed enormous resources of valuable raw materials and time. The Tiger I tanks and the few Tiger II tanks had a significant impact on the course of hostilities. The infamous and spreading terror of the Tigers destroyed over 10,300 Allied tanks and 11,380 guns with losses of only 1,725.
