TAKOM 2192 1/35 Sd.Kfz.181 Pz.Kpfw.VI Ausf.E Tiger I Experimental Project 3 in 1

 

 

- The Tiger Iw/KwK.43 L/71 equipped type was planned by the Ordnance Bureau's 6th Section in August 1943, and was a vehicle that replaced the Tiger I's main gun with the KwK.43, the same as the Tiger II.
- Wegmann, which was requested to carry out this project, ordered a turret for the KWK.43 from Krupp and planned to conduct tests in October of the same year, but since the KWK.43 was given priority for the Tiger II, this plan to replace the main gun was not realized.
- The T-VI-100 was a Soviet project to convert a captured Tiger I to a 100mm D-10 cannon. It never survived beyond the planning stage.
- The Tiger Iw/KwK.L/55 A18-equipped version is a vehicle equipped with a 75mm A18 autoloading cannon with a magazine capacity of 5 rounds, which was planned by Skoda for the T-25 medium tank.
- The T-25 medium tank only remained on paper, but the A18 autoloader was installed on a salvaged Tiger I for testing after the war.

- This is a 3 in 1 kit that allows you to choose and assemble either the Tiger Iw/KwK.43 L/71, T-VI-100, or Tiger Iw/KwK.L/55 A18-equipped version.
- The tracks are of the link-and-length type
