Through my recent research I found a lot of pictures of models with Tiger Turrets on Ferdinand hulls. Not many pictures of real ones, though. Does anyone know if any of them saw combat?

Thanks,

Gary

Gary, the only one I know of is the command tank with turret nunber 003 which served at the Eastern Front. Cheers, Tat

A single Tiger P (chassis number 150013) was used as a command tank for a platoon of Elephant TDs part of PA 653 on the eastern front during 1944.
