Tamiya 32539 - 1/48 King Tiger Porsche Turret  [32539]

German King Tiger "Porsche Turret"

Stunning Form Packs a Deadly Punch

Showing up in 1944, the King Tiger ended up being Germany's final manufacturing model heavy tank. The tank showcased armor of 100mm depth on front and 80mm on edges, plus it mounted equivalent 88mm high velocity primary weapon as seen on the Tiger I. The capacity to penetrate 152mm dense armor plate from a distance of 2,000 meters, along with strong defensive ability made the King Tiger a solid foe. The first 50 tanks produced highlighted turrets manufactured by the Porsche company, which featured distinctive curved contours. The Porsche turret versions of the King Tiger first saw action at Normandy in June, 1944, where they put their awesome firepower to utilize by attempting to repel the invading Allies.
