HISTORY:

This German Sturmtiger was a real killing-machine, and a feared beast! The Sturmtiger was based on a late model Tiger 1 chassis, the front of the Tiger's superstructure was removed to make room for the new fighting compartment housing the rocket launcher/mortar. The Sturmtiger was a very powerful tank, and it is easy to see why-The Huge Barrel! The Sturmtiger Barrel is a breech loading rocket launcher that could either fire a projectile that contained an explosive charge, or a projectile that contained a shaped charge. These projectiles could easily penetrate through 2.5 meters of reinforced concrete! The Sturmtiger was used to take down heavily defended buildings or fortified areas, with a single shot. This meant it would have to drive into areas more populated, and be subjected to attacks by enemy gunfire. This is why the Sturmtiger has a very "boxy" shape to it. The amour on the German Sturmtiger tank was meant to take a real hit as its it's frontal armour was 150 mm thick, as well as sloped, while its side plates were still some 80 mm thick. This pushed the weight of the vehicle up from the original 57 tons of the regular Tiger 1 to some 68 tons. Simply put, the German Sturmtioger was an incredible, unique Tank, and will be long remebered in history.
