Comparing: E 50 Ausf. M vs. T95E6

The German Army demanded that the E-series tanks had transmissions positioned in the rear. However, the E 50 and E 75 tanks used the Tiger II engine-transmission compartment, which made rear placement of the transmission impossible. The E 50 Ausf. M tank was a redesign of the E 50 project with the transmission placed in the rear.

Some military analysts deemed the experimental tanks of the T95 series to be undergunned. In order to increase the tank's firepower, a new, heavier turret, designated T96, was to be mounted on the hull. This would allow replacement of the 105-mm gun with a 120-mm gun. However, development proved unsuccessful, and the project was canceled on July 7th, 1960. Only one dummy vehicle was built.
