MYTH vs MACHINE: TIGER
The Tiger, no other tank of World War II is better known. The nimbus of the infamous German heavy tank and that of its successor, the mighty King Tiger, is still unbroken and as powerful as it was 72 years ago. Today, it is still known for its fabled ‘invincibility’, for the power of its mighty 8.8cm gun and, especially in modern, revisionist historiography, for its legendary ‘unreliability’. Yet on the Eastern Front, and to a slightly lesser extent in the western theatre of war, Tiger-equipped German units performed surprisingly well. The true story of the Tiger is hidden somewhere between those extremes, and is best told by those who used and also faced the gigantic German war machines on the battlefield. Inside this issue, we uncover the truth behind Nazi Germany’s armoured fist.
