History of the Tiger I model

The German Tiger I tank was one of the most recognizable and heaviest armored vehicles of World War II. Introduced into service in 1942, the Tiger I (Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger Ausf. E) played a significant role on all fronts of the conflict, including the battles of Kursk, Normandy, and the Ardennes. It was characterized by a powerful turret, excellent 88 mm gun, and a distinctive stowage box behind the turret, which is the focus of this enhancement set.
