Additional Information

the Ferdinand Tank destroyer is one of the most interesting representatives of German armored vehicles of the Second World War. And it's not that at the time of his appearance, he had armor of enormous thickness, against which were powerless almost all anti-tank means of the red Army, and not that
the
on the "Ferdinand" revealed one of the guns of the Second World War with a caliber of 88 mm, which from a distance of 2 km is guaranteed to hit the entire armor of the period. The most interesting fact is the history of its appearance. It was an initiative and spontaneous alteration of the heavy tanks "Tiger" from the company "Porsche"that did not go into a series. Baptism of fire self-propelled guns received during operation "Citadel" near Kursk, where "Ferdinand" broke through the defense of Soviet troops for tens of kilometers into the depths. Despite its small number (about 90 cars were produced), Ferdinand remained in service until the end of the war, ending it in Berlin. And the fame of this machine was so high in the ranks of the red Army that the name "Ferdinand", along with "Tiger" has become a household name and is often applied to all heavy self-propelled guns Germany.
