【 The Tunisian Tiger 】 One of the most powerful tanks deployed during WWII, this Initial Production Tiger I was among those sent to Tunisia to help Rommel fight the Allied forces in late 1942. These early Tigers had pistol ports on the turret sides, front fender composed of a skid-proof board, Feifel air pre-cleaners, and a storage box behind the turret.
