Historical background: The Tiger (P) – Sdkfz.181 Panzerkampfwagen VI (Porsche Tiger) – was a German prototype heavy tank from World War II. It was designed by Ferdinand Porsche and constructed between 1942 and 1943. Although it never entered mass production (losing to the Henschel version), several dozen hulls were used for building the famous Elefant tank destroyers. The Tiger (P) was mainly used in tests and a few frontline actions – for example, a single vehicle was deployed in Russia in the summer of 1942.
