The Tiger I was a German heavy tank of World War II that operated beginning in 1942 in Africa and the Soviet Union, usually in independent heavy tank battalions. It gave the German Army its first armored fighting vehicle that mounted the 8.8 cm KwK 36 gun. 1,347 were built between August 1942 and August 1944. After August 1944, the production of the Tiger I was phased out in favour of the Tiger II. While the Tiger I has been called an outstanding design for its time, it has also been called over-engineered, using expensive materials and labour-intensive production methods. In the early period, Tiger was prone to certain types of track failures and breakdowns and was in general limited in range by its high fuel consumption. It was expensive to maintain, but generally mechanically reliable.[14] It was difficult to transport and vulnerable to immobilisation when mud, ice, and snow froze between its overlapping and interleaved Schachtellaufwerk-pattern road wheels, often jamming them solid. This was a problem on the Eastern Front in the muddy rasputitsa season and during periods of extreme cold.[citation needed]The tank was given its nickname "Tiger" by Ferdinand Porsche, and the Roman numeral was added after the Tiger II entered production. The initial designation was Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausführung H (literally "armoured combat vehicle VI version H", abbreviated PzKpfw VI Ausf. H) where 'H' denoted Henschel as the designer/manufacturer. It was classified with ordnance inventory designation Sd. Kfz. 182. The tank was later re-designated as PzKpfw VI Ausf. E in March 1943, with ordnance inventory designation Sd.Kfz. 181. Today, only seven Tiger I tanks survive in museums and private collections worldwide. As of 2021, Tiger 131  at the UK's Tank Museum is the only example restored to running order.

Missing images for groups

I noticed that a few groups or vehicle were missing the images, i wanted to add those missing as i have the files, but when checking how the templates work, i noticed that the image for other vehicle aren't uploaded at all on the website, is the wiki depending of gzabi's Datamine repository for the images ?


I tried to upload the image for the ostwin 2 but they don't want to "appear" now that they are uploaded.

Am i missing something ? - Oshida_BCF (talk) 11:14, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
