The 8.8 cm KwK 36 L/56 gun was a powerful armament of the German Pz.Kpfw. VI Tiger I tank, which debuted on the front in 1942. The Tiger I tank was used by the Third German Reich and played a key role on World War II battlefields, especially during battles on both the Eastern and Western fronts, such as at Kursk or in Normandy.
