Comparing: Löwe vs. O-Ho

Development of this 70-ton super-heavy tank started on November 1, 1941. In February 1942, the Krupp company suggested the VK 70.01 avant project, later designated the Löwe ("Lion"). Several designs varying in configuration, armament, and armor, were drafted. However, the project was canceled after the Führer made the decision to develop even heavier tanks. No prototypes were ever built.

The O-Ho was a further development of the idea of a superheavy tank with improved armor protection. The vehicle had a good set of guns that allowed for all-angle fire. The project was discontinued due to the war ending. No finished prototypes were built and the vehicle never saw action.
