Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger – Sd.Kfz. 181 – Tiger 131 and Maybach Engine


Between 2017 and 2019 the Tank Museum in Bovington presented a special exhibition named “The Tiger Collection“, where the museum tried to gather and display all the surviving Tiger variants. In this article we share the pictures of the Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger, Sd.Kfz. 181 a.k.a. Tiger 131.

This is probably the best known version; the Tiger I powered by a Maybach HL210 TRM P45 engine. Tank Ace Michael Wittmann would prove to be a deadly combination together with this tank.
