@Mordred's Quest - you over rate an inferior machine The Tiger tank was over complicated. For instance the interleaved running wheels clogged with mud and froze. To take one inner wheel off you had to remove five adjoining wheels. The horizontal torsion bar suspension caused the tank to have a high profile and frequently they broke. The tank was too heavy. The engine, transmission and final drive were designed for a lighter tank, but Hitler added around nine tons more armor to the tank overtaxing the drive train. As the war went on, inability to get certain metals prevented the various steels used in the tank to become brittle causing failure in the transmission and final drive. It was very expensive to build. Only some 1300 were made. It was not an assembly line tank, it was a artisanal tank made in small batches in smaller factories limiting the output requiring special parts to be made by hand which took time to manufacture. It was man hour intensive to make and man hour intensive to operate. For every one hour in combat crews expected to do nine hours of work on the tank. It was prone to breakdown in the field which drew many men from the battlefield to repair these tanks. The tank engines had limited life span of under 1000 miles. Compared that to the Sherman some of which were in continual operation from Normandy to the border of Germany pausing only to change the oil and fill up with gas. Seriously a lot were driven 3000 to 4000 miles with no need for major repairs. The Turret traverse was slow. It too a full minute to rotate the turret 360 degrees. It could not shoot on the move. The turret rotation required power from the engine it did not use a separate motor, so if the tank was moving, turret rotation slowed even more. The driver did not have a periscope only a vision opening. To see much you had to have your face pressed up against it and even then, you could not see the front of the glacis plate. It was a driver’s nightmare. The gunner had a decent sight, but only limited magnification. The Tank was too heavy, slow and not very maneuverable. It was a good stand off and snipe tank, but proved a disaster in urban situations, in towns, cities or places like the Bocage area of France and the heavily mudded areas of eastern front where the Russians would draw the tank into in order to defeat it. It was billed as a break through tank, but did not do too well due to limited visibility. Michael Witmann the Tiger Ace was killed when his tank along with three others were ambushed by a group of Canadian tanks when they launched an attack on British units to their front. They drove right into the sights of the Canucks who were in defilade to their right and didn’t know what hit them when the Fireflys hit their side armor.
