DRAGON MODELS

WWII's heaviest armored vehicle was the Sd.Kfz. 186 Jagdtiger, which weighed in at a ponderous 71.7 tonnes. It entered service in September 1944 and saw combat until the end of the war. These monstrous antitank vehicles were supplied to only two combat units – schwere Panzerjäger-Abteilung (sPzJgAbt.) 512 and 653. Dragon Armor has produced an excellent 1/72 scale example of a Jagdtiger with Porsche suspension. All but 11 of the 88 Jagdtigers eventually built had a Henschel suspension system, which had nine road wheels instead of the Porsche's eight wheels. This makes this Dragon Armor that little bit more unique.
