Authors: David Parker Gary Edmundson Steve van Beveren About this book Probably the most famous tank of the World War II, the Tiger I was originally conceived in 1941 in response to the German Army’s experience in fighting British tanks & anti-tank guns in Western Europe & the North African desert. Following the invasion of Russia, the appearance of the Soviet T-34 & KW tanks lent a further impetus to the programme & 1, 350 Tigers were produced between August 1942 & August 1944. The Tiger has proved to be one of the most popular modelling subjects of all time, with a vast & ever-increasing range of kits, aftermarket products & references available. This title features six different projects from some of the earliest Tigers in North Africa through to the late-production variants at the very end of the war. Contents Introduction • 121’, s. Pz.
