Comparing: Tiger I L/56 vs. T29

Development of the Tiger I was started in 1937 by the Henschel company. Mass production began in 1942, with a total of 1,354 vehicles manufactured. The tank first saw combat near Leningrad, and Tigers were at the forefront of battles from Tunisia to Kursk. Although production was discontinued in the summer of 1944, the Tiger I continued to see action until the end of the war.

Development of this experimental heavy tank started in 1944. The prototype was built in 1947. The vehicle featured the 105 mm T5E1 gun. After the war, the mass production of heavy tanks was deemed unreasonable, and only a few prototypes of this vehicle were built.
