Weighing in at 71.7 tonnes, the German Jagdtiger tank destroyer was definitely the super heavyweight of WWII armored vehicles. It was 10.65m long from the tip of its gun muzzle to the outlets of the rear exhausts, and it was a massive 3.6m wide. Although it was armed with a lethal 12.8cm PaK 44 L/55 gun, the Jagdtiger's enormous bulk impacted severely on its mobility, meaning it could only hope to reach a maximum speed of 34km/h at best. The Sd.Kfz.186 Jagdtiger entered service in late 1944, and it served on both the Eastern and Western Fronts, with around 80 or so being produced. The first 11 Jagdtigers manufactured were based on a Porsche suspension system (using a paired external torsion bar suspension system with eight single road wheels), while subsequent vehicles employed a Henschel suspension design (individual internal torsion bars with nine double road wheels).
