Tiger I (listen (help·info)) is the common name of a German heavy tank of World War II. The initial official German designation was Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausführung H (abbreviated PzKpfw VI Ausf. H, Ausführung is German for "version") but the tank was redesignated as Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf. E in March 1943. The tank also had the ordnance inventory designation SdKfz 181.

The Tiger I was in use from late 1942 until the German surrender in 1945. It was given its "Tiger" nickname by Ferdinand Porsche (the roman numeral was added after the Tiger II was produced). The design served as the basis for other armoured vehicles, the Sturmtiger heavy self-propelled gun and the Bergetiger amoured recovery vehicle.

    This show is ridiculously stupid, Not only are they rating on a scale of 1-10...for people who just want numbers...they use a bar scale...okay..retarded. There were video clips of Panthers while they are talking about tigers....there were pictures of fake tiger bodies on top of t-52 russian chassis. This program has an air of extreme ignorance, and some college drop out historians describing history that they found on wikipedia. It's just a crap quality television program in general.

    One of the main reasons (well it was an awesome tank) for Tigers success were also the experienced crews. They were distributed to crews which were already proven themselves in other, lighter tanks.
