During the later stages of WWII, the heavy tank destroyer Jagdtiger which weighed in excess of 70 tons and had an impressive 12.8cm gun and thick armor, was the heaviest tank seen on both the eastern and western fronts. Tamiya has re-released this 1/35 scale Jagdtiger after its initial release 33 years ago, and in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the 1/35 Scale Military Miniature Series.
Completely new design. Interior details such as the gun breach area and the floorboards are reproduced. Commander and driver torso figures included. 5 kinds of markings for the 653rd Heavy Tank Battalion included. Along with its extended hull, the spare track link racks and jack are also realistically reproduced. The separately molded disc parts of the road wheels add extra depth to the model. Two kinds of tracks are included; an easy to assemble belt type and a connectible assembly type. A choice of stowed or extended traveling clamps. Photo-etched parts for the engine intake protective net included.
