The Jagdtiger, designated as Sd.Kfz. 186, was a German heavy tank destroyer based on the Tiger II chassis. Produced from 1944 to 1945, it mainly took part in fighting on the Western Front, including the Battle of the Bulge and defensive operations within Germany. Due to its powerful armor and armament (128mm Pak 44 L/55 gun), the Jagdtiger was a formidable opponent. However, only about 80 units were produced because of technical and logistical issues.

The Eduard 36486 set allows precise reconstruction of elements such as: tool clamps, shield elements, external panels, ventilation grilles, equipment mounts, and other details not available in standard plastic parts. Assembly of photo-etched components requires experience and the use of specialized modeling tools – the degree of difficulty is rated at 4/5.

This product is recommended for intermediate and advanced military modelers seeking to accurately depict the authentic appearance of the late World War II Jagdtiger. By using the Eduard 36486 set, your Hobby Boss model will gain a unique, collectible character and realism appreciated both at exhibitions and in private collections.
