Description

Tiger 712 has arrived at the Brooklyn docks, in mid 1943. Its hull is still coated with the dust of Tunisia. All of the tank's external tools are missing, along with the periscopes. The engine-deck mesh grilles are still in place.

The turret has been removed incorrectly, leaving the ball bearing ring attached to the hull. The opening has been sealed with a custom wooden panel.
