After Henschel's version of the "Tiger" heavy battle tank was preferred to the design by Professor Ferdinand Porsche, the approximately 100 remaining chassis of the "Porsche Tiger" should form the basis for a new tank destroyer, the tank destroyer »Ferdinand«. Author Michael Fröhlich competently describes everything worth knowing about the origin, development, technology, armament and fate of this tank destroyer, of which around 90 were built and used in combat from 1943 on.
Many unprecedented illustrations, technical drawings and sketches complete the volume.
With a total of 300 pictures.
