Precision Model Art Diecast Armor P0331
Henschel Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger Diecast Model
German Army sPzAbt 502, #217, Otto Carius, Eastern Front, 1944

1:72 Scale   Length   Width
Henschel Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger   4.75"   2"

Made of die cast metal and plastic in precise 1:72 scale, this Tiger I model is unlike any other pre-assembled tank model you've seen because the interior is as detailed as the exterior! Open the hatches and peer inside. Remove the turret cover to see its interior, too, including details of the barrel's breech. Take off the engine cover to reveal the removable, die cast metal engine. And finally, remove the deck to see the hull interior, including detailed crew stations and ordnance stores.

Otto Carius was a German tank commander in the army of Nazi Germany during World War II. He was a recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves. He is considered a "panzer ace" credited with destroying more than 150 enemy tanks and 1 Plane, mostly on the Eastern Front.

Henschel Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger

Production of the Tiger began in August 1942, and by August 1944 1,355 of these tanks had been built. The 88mm main gun was the most powerful anti-tank gun in use by any army. The superior mobility of Allied tanks allowed them to attack from behind or from the side in the hope of taking a Tiger down. The influence of Tiger tanks on allied morale grew to almost mythical proportions, and was known as "Tigerphobia." Tigers destroyed tremendous amounts of enemy equipment and often just the sight of a Tiger would induce the Russian tankers to withdraw.
