An interesting comment from a page on the VK 45.01 (P):<br /><br />Porsches Entwurf hatte einige wesentliche Voteile gegenüber dem Tiger I von Henschel, auch wenn der benzinelektrische Antrieb ganz sicher nicht dazu gehörte. Das Laufwerk und besonders die längere 8,8cm Kampfwagenkanone hatten jedoch dem Tiger(P) den Start in die Serienfertigung ebnen können, wäre vom Heer nicht der Typ von Henschel bevorzugt worden. Mit dem Jagdpanzer Ferdinand hatte Porsche weniger Glück. Die dort verwendete 8,8cm Kwk war eine wirklich gute Waffe, aber hätte man statt des festen Aufbaus einen Drehturm verwendet und die Acht-Acht durch eine lange 150mm Haubitze ersetzt, hätte man schon damals eine brauchbare mobile Artillerieplattform besessen. Nun ja aus Fehlern lernt man, auch wenn es bis nach 1950 dauerte.<br /><br /><br />Source: http://www.zweiter-weltkrieg-lexikon.de/index.php/Panzer/Prototypen/VK-4501-P-Tiger-I-P-Porsches-Tiger-I-Entwurf.htmlKankouhttp://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/user/3121954-kankou/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-803236411311363895.post-57077697529094505822013-04-13T09:15:07.489+02:002013-04-13T09:15:07.489+02:00Bojan: ....yet Wargaming's 30 year old "e...Bojan: ....yet Wargaming's 30 year old "expert" somehow miraculously uncovers them, like they did with the Failowe?
