Tiger!
Tiger!
This brand
new collector edition features the infamous Tiger Tank, one of the the deadliest
fighting machines ever built and the most successful tank ace of WWII,
Michael Wittmann.
Wittmann's Tiger advances towards Beauvais in June 1944 to intercept the
advancing British 7th Armoured Division - the famous Desert Rats - during
the Allied Invasion of Normandy. Awarded the Knights Cross with Swords and
Oak Leaves, Michael Wittman was the most decorated tank commander of WWII
but, together with his entire crew, lost his life on August 8 in the
battle for Cintheaux when his Tiger received a direct hit from a rocket
fired by a RAF Typhoon ground attack fighter.
