The Pzkpfw VI Tiger was a powerful tank, with thick armour and an 8.8cm main gun. It was all but invulnerable to standard allied anti-tank guns making it an excellent defensive tank, but fortunately for the allies it
was a complex tank to manufacture and took time to build, thereby limiting the numbers that were available to commanders on the ground.
