Re: Tiger I-One Tough Cat

Here's a cool pic I found of the road wheel arrangement. You can see how the first outer wheel is positioned to act like a scraper and jam up with gunk.

Enjoy!!!

A great example of a late version tiger 1. This tiger's number is 312 in black numbers on a yellow background. The unit emblem is a black charging knight on a red back ground and the camouflge is red brown stripes over a dark yellow base. This tiger belongs to Spzabt 505 late 44 in russia. This unit had varying base colours for the knights background which signified what company the tiger belonged to. Cyberia yet another tiger that you have posted that has been used by the tamiya modelling company. There late version tiger one kit has the decals for this very vehicle.

This one has been discussed before. This is the command group of 3rd company 101 LAH just before the normandy campaign. The tiger is a mid production tiger numbered 311 and if remeber rightly it is may 44 and the location is Amiens. I also remeber there were some famous commander's in this photo and Wittmann wasn't one of them
