The Jagdtiger was a logical extension of the creation of Jagdpanzer designs from tank designs such as the Jagdpanther from the Panther tank. The Jagdtiger used a boxy superstructure on top of a lengthened Tiger II chassis. The resulting vehicle featured very heavy armor and the powerful 128-mm PaK 44 L/55 gun capable of defeating any tank fielded in World War II, even at long ranges. The Jagdtiger suffered from a variety of mechanical and technical problems due to its immense weight and underpowered engine. Despite these shortcomings, it was still very effective in defensive roles. It wasn't just the biggest vehicle of the war, but it had the biggest gun with the greatest caliber. And its power to kill tanks would be great even on the modern battlefield. So why wasn't it successful? Why didn't they build more of them? Which units used it? Were there any modifications on the model? These questions and many more are answered in this second release of our new Tech series.
