Tamiya's 1/48 military miniature series model kits are highly detailed, exciting to put together and great to look at!

1943 saw the production of the world's heaviest and most powerful tank of its time, the Jagdtiger. Produced by Henschel, it was based on the King Tiger's chassis and featured a long-barrelled 12.8cm gun which showed great offensive capabilities, being able to knock out Allied tanks from great distances. Along with its new design, the large fixed fighting compartment was given 250mm thick front armour, which was unique to this tank. First appearing at the Ardennes offensive in December 1944, the Jagdtiger mostly fought against Allied forces in Western Germany from January 1945. Up until April 1945, more than 80 Jagdtigers and another ten with "Porsche turrets" were produced.
