Description

Tiger "S11" of the Das Reich division is parked on a rise. The tank bears the markings of Summer 1943 but it was built in January (witness its non-standard turret bin). The sprocket wheel is of a recent type, and is not the original part that the tank was built with. The tank's smoke launcher tubes have been removed, as usual for this period, but it's unusual that their bracket was left in place. A notch in the far bottom corner of the mantlet signifies that it's a Tiger (P) mantlet.

A frontal photo of Tiger S11 shows this same scene.

The photo research was largely the work of the old TIIF.DE team.
