Dragon 1:72 Sd.Kfz.186 Jagdtiger Henschel

The kit proposed by Dragon company includes a plastic model kit of German tank destroyer in 1:72 scale.

Sd.Kfz.186 Jagdtiger was the largest and heaviest vehicle used in combat during the Second World War. It was created on the basis of the modified heavy tank chassis Pz.Kpfw.VI King Tiger. This tank destroyer was equipped with PaK.44/2 L/55 of 128mm caliber, which was able to penetrate the armor of all Allied constructions from a distance of up to 4 kilometers. A few copies were produced, which were characterized by high failure rates and low mobility. These vehicles were very vulnerable to attacks from the air. These vehicles were produced in two versions: Porsche and Henschel.

Jagdtiger with Henschel suspension had nine road wheels with a slightly larger diameter than the Porsche suspension. Most of the vehicles were built with this suspension.
