Citat:In a world first, The Tank Museum is planning an exhibition that will bring every member of the Tiger Tank family together in one display.
The new exhibition, supported by Wargaming, will feature the Museum’s Tiger 1, two King Tigers, a Jagdtiger and will also be joined by at least one vehicle on international loan – which will be going on public display in Europe for the first time since it was captured in 1944.
The US Army Ordnance Training and Heritage Center have confirmed that they will be loaning The Tank Museum their Elefant (based on the rejected Porsche Tiger chassis) for the exhibition and the Museum remains hopeful that it will be joined by a Sturmtiger from overseas.
The new exhibition, which will be unveiled in April 2017, is aimed at enthusiasts of German armour and will feature new and previously unseen crew interviews and testimonies and accounts from those who faced them in action.
The development and technology employed in these huge machines, along with historical detail about the battles in which they fought, will aim to assess the extent to which these tanks deserve their mighty reputations.
