Few weapons in the history of warfare have instilled as much fear in their opponents as the German Army’s Tiger tank of World War II. When it emerged onto the battlefields of North Africa and the Soviet Union in 1942, it immediately proved itself a superior armoured fighting vehicle. Even in the hands of an inexperienced crew the Tiger was a formidable weapon, but when manned by skilled tankers, it was at times almost unstoppable.
