Historical Background[]

Koenigstiger (more properly Königstiger) is the German word for "king tiger". Koenigstiger was also the name of a German tank in WWII with a very large turret (long barrel, narrow aperture) which could fire shells a very long distance. Although heavily armored, it suffered numerous mechanical failures, such as loss of steering, the engine easily overheating or failing, and they were very fuel inefficient (all of these stemmed from the Germans rushing it through production with little testing of prototypes). It was developed late in the war and first saw action in Normandy on July 18, 1944. Only 560 were manufactured. Despite their numerous flaws, they were considered very formidable as they could fire at Allied vehicles and they could not be targeted back due to being out of the Allies' firing range. The tank was also called Tiger II.
