Germany's Panzer IV E type, often referred to as the "Tiger" I tank. It was developed because the German armored forces unexpectedly encountered stubborn resistance from Soviet tanks within a few months of attacking the Soviet Union, especially the T-34 and KV-1. The Tiger I was the first tank to be equipped with an 88mm gun. The anti-aircraft gun version of the gun has demonstrated excellent anti-aircraft and anti-armor capabilities. During the war, the "Tiger" I appeared in almost all German frontline battles. It is usually deployed in independent heavy tank groups. "Tiger" I has produced a strong psychological deterrent to many opponents. Its design is very complex, using many expensive materials and production processes, and its production requires a lot of time. Therefore, between August 1942 and August 1944, only 1,347 were built.
