The King Tiger Tank was the most feared mobile armored vehicle during World War II. Its front was nearly impenetraible, only giving way when repeatedly struck by armor piercing rounds. Its main gun was an 88mm with a muzzle veliocity of 1000m per second for armor peircing rounds. It was highly accurate, and able to penetrate 150mm of armor at distances greater than 2200m. The gun itself was 20 feet long. Henschel submited a model of the tank to Adolf Hitler. It was accepted and put to mass production. Its front armor was 150mm thick and sloped at a 50 degree angle. Its sides were 80mm thick and sloped at a 25 degree angle. This tank caused great destruction to the Allies. But there wasn't enough of them to bring victory to the Axis because they were built near the end of the war. Kingtigerturret.gif
