This is a 1/35 scale assembly model of the German Heavy Tank Destroyer
Elephant.
Extensive research was conducted by Tamiyas designers to bring the modeling world the most accurate rendition to date.
Historical background
In 1941, Porsche created a prototype tank which incorporated radical
features including a gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain. In 1943, the
tank was transformed into the Ferdinand tank destroyer armed with an
8.8 cm PaK 43 L/71 gun housed in a large box-shaped superstructure and 90
units were produced. During the Battle of Kursk, they demonstrated
superior anti-armor capability to knock out T-34 and KV-1 tanks at long
range, but their slow speed and unreliability resulted in many being
immobilized by mechanical troubles. In 1944, 50 surviving Ferdinands
were given modifications, including the addition of a machine gun, a
commanders cupola, and were re-designated with the name Elefant. The
Elefant saw combat on the Italian and Russian fronts, and some fought until the very end of WWII during the Battle of Berlin.
