- Introduction & Background
The "King Tiger" heavy tank was one of the tanks with the strongest protection and most powerful firepower in World War II. It is said that on the European Western Front battlefield, the American and British troops could not find an effective way to deal with it for a while; but on the European Eastern Front battlefield, the Soviet army took advantage of the "King Tiger"'s fatal weakness of poor maneuverability to attack from the side, but there were many problems. There are fewer cases of "slaughtering tigers".
