Tank Of The Day.


Two, different examples of the KonigsTiger, the King or Royal Tiger tank, the Tiger 2.
The one at the top has the so-called Porsche turret, which was actually a pre-production turret with a 'shot-trap' which was eliminated in the production model shown below.
A very potent tank, with sloped, heavy armour, and an 88 mm gun which was more powerful than the anti-aircraft version, a custom-made tank gun in fact.(Or so I believe-you can always look it up on wikipedia)
