Tiger Tank

The Tiger I is the common name of a German heavy tank used in World War II, developed in 1942. The final official German designation was Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. E, often shortened to Tiger. It was an answer to the unexpectedly formidable Soviet armour encountered in the initial months of Operation Barbarossa, particularly the T-34 and the KV-1. The Tiger I design gave the Wehrmacht its first tank mounting the 88 mm gun, which had previously demonstrated its effectiveness against both air and ground targets. During the course of the war, the Tiger I saw combat on all German battlefronts. It was usually deployed in independent tank battalions, which proved to be quite formidable.

Tiger Tank in Worldwar
Just like with the Panther, the Tiger was designed to give Germany a tank which could fight the Landcruisers equally. But it was still inferior to the Landcruisers. However, the Race's leadership were worried about the Tiger and the Panther as they were designed in such a short time which the Race did not share.
