The Tiger II was a German heavy tank of the Second World War.

Allied soldiers usually called it the King Tiger or Royal Tiger.

The Tiger II combined the Tiger I's thick armour with the armour sloping used on the Panther medium tank.

Weighing in at 70 tons, Armour reaching 18cm, and 71 calibres anti-tank canon completed the strength of Tiger II.

Tiger II's canon was capable of penetrating all allied tanks at a distance of about 2km at the time, and was capable of attack at a maximum of 3.5km.

Their actual performance was great.

Karl Körner's Tiger II destroyed over 100 tanks and Cannon, and one Tiger II destroyed five to ten enemy tanks.

Literally, the emergence of Tiger II was a disaster for the Allied tank units.

However, only 500 units were produced due to the lack of supplies and unfavorable war conditions.

Moreover, Tiger II was unable to lead the war to victory because it was more than eight times more expensive than Allied tanks.
