ヤークトティーガー
[b]Jagdtiger[/b] ("Hunting Tiger") is the common name of a German heavy [[tank destroyer]] of [[World War II]]. The official German designation was [b]Panzerjäger Tiger Ausf. B[/b] as it was based on a lengthened [[Tiger II]] chassis. The 71-tonne Jagdtiger was the heaviest armored fighting vehicle used operationally during [[World War II]] and is the heaviest armored vehicle of any type to achieve series production. The vehicle carried a 128 mm PaK 44 L/55 main gun, capable of out-ranging and defeating any fielded Allied [[tank]].

However, the tank suffered from a similar overweight issue with its base model, which is further exacerbated by the front-heavy centre of gravity. Resulted in a frequent brakedowns that added further strains on stuggling German logistics. The vehicle's increased weight also cause it to be even more underpowered and slower than the base model.
