Re: Tiger II, Power on the Prowl

As a note for those unfamiliar (maybe no one here) with the WW2 German practice, all turrets were government supplied equipment and made by Krupp. Only the hulls (running) were made by the various manufacturers (Henschel, Porsche). So . . . why do we call the early Tiger B turret the "Porsche" turret? Because we won the war and what are ya goin' to do about it!
