Just watching these chaps working on getting the wheels in working order explains to me why a lot of the tank crews abandoned these tanks on the battlefield. VERY intricate design to be working on when you’re being shot at.

That is amazing.. A Tiger Tank that built by Henschel in Kassel, only a few Kilometers far from my Hometown. A lot of Men from our Village work at the Henschel Factory. And now it was restorated in Australia, on the other Side of the Planet... And these Aussie Guys made a Great Job... Greets from Germany..

Even after 80 years of technical progress, this Tiger 1 tank still impresses by his massive presence and the aura of physical enforcement together with some kind of majesty which transpire, reaching our imagination. Impressive work you have done to rebuild this engin from scratch. Nevertheless, we should keep in mind that it is a killing machine, built to serve an despictable ideology.

They are 63 Tonnes! Frontal armour is 103mm thick. Nothing could stop them. Sherman round bounced off, even at 300 meters! One of these could finsish an entire Batallion single handely, and many did. A handful wiped out an entire army of American tanks in Africa.

UNBELIEVABLY GRAND !!!! Without a doubt, the Tiger 1 is the predecessor for all MBTs today regarding its design and functionality. It had power steering and an automatic transmission -- which the drivers said were stupendous (and became standard design years later). It also had a turret floor which meant that the crew did not have to keep readjusting their positions as the turret turned -- thereby increasing crew effectiveness for the mission as well as cohesiveness. The Tiger crews truly believed that they OWNED the battlefield and talked about how safe they felt in them as the tank took hit after hit. The Tiger 1 brings together the 3 main factors that are applied today: 1. FIREPOWER, 2. PROTECTION, and 3. Mobility. While it is true that the Tiger is underpowered, the Germans could have designed an engine to give it better speed and reliability. Without a doubt, the engines of today would make this behemoth MOVE. The Tiger 1 is a masterpiece of design no matter what its detractors will tell you. It dominated the battlefield and created such tank aces as Michael Wittman, Kurt Knispel, Otto Carius, Johannes Bolter, and Walter Kniep.

Bless you guys for saving this history for future generations.

Kurt, i have to admit, you have done as good a job on this video as the boys did putting her together, loved it. When Beau was talking about the chassis number, i choked a bit as well seeing him getting to grips with where he was sitting. I wonder, how many folk have asked for a job with you guy's since these videos have been aired? Long may they continue.

i sure hope this tiger will be used for a movie,.. maybe a movie about the tank itself, following it through certain battles.
