The Tiger II was a German heavy tank of the Second World War. The final official German designation was Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B, [notes 1] often shortened to Tiger B. [8] The ordnance inventory designation was Sd.Kfz. 182. [8] ( Sd.Kfz. 267 and 268 for command vehicles). The 88mm L71 KwK 43 tank gun, joined by the excellent optics, was able to pierce any enemy tank on long ranges; front armor was able to whithstand any enemy anti-tank gun, large battle tracks permitted the tank to offer a ground pressure of only 0.74 Kg/cm2 (when the tracks sunk of 20 cm in the ground), speed of a remarkable maximum of 41.5 Kmh Note the 73 caliber gun to compete with the 88 mm KwK 43 L/71 gun on the King Tiger. The 90 mm M3 gun of the Pershing was similar to the German 88 mm KwK 36 used on the Tiger I. In an effort to match the firepower of the King Tiger's more powerful 88 mm KwK 43, the T15E1 90 mm gun was developed and mounted in a T26E1 in January 1945. This tank By May 1942, Hitler was ordering a rifled anti-tank gun of that caliber and, in a letter from Wa Pruef 4 (German design office for artillery) to Friedrich Krupp of Essen on 2nd February 1943, the 12.8 cm Jagdpanzer concept was born. The letter set out the idea of mounting of a 12.8 cm Stu.K. (Sturm Kanone – Assault gun) on a modified Tiger H3. The biggest reasons why you would need 1000 Tigers to take on 1 Abrams is three fold. Accuracy. The fire control systems and gun of the Abrams is extremely accurate against tank sized objects out to 4000 meters. The Tiger I's 88mm gun could at best get a hit at 2000 meters with some semblance of accuracy. Armor. The Battle of Oglendow – The first known use of heavy German tanks in the battle of the King Tiger. August 12, 1944 in the vicinity of the village of Oglendow the crew of T-34-85 A.P. Oskin destroyed three newest German tanks “King Tiger”. The outcome of the battle was important for the capture of the Sandomierz bridgehead, which in turn It was verbally translated as the King Tiger and Royal Tiger by soldiers. Tiger 2 is the heaviest tank mass-production in history. Its 8.8cm KwK 43 was able to destroy almost any tank on the battlefield. Tiger 2 could also kill any armour gun apart from hollow charge weapons. Tiger 2 was developed soon after they stopped producing Tiger 1. .
