Description:
German King Tiger (Henschel turret) with 105mm kwk L/65
Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a German WWII King Tiger heavy tank but fitted with an L/65 main gun, as can be seen in the World of Tanks video game, this combination never happened in reality. The original gun was a 8.8cm L/71 gun and there was proposals by Krupp for a 105mm L/68 upgrade that never materialized. Trumpeter fails here at not materialize the historical Krupp proposal mainly because also the video game uses the L/68, it can be also just a box misprint as we don’t own thee kit t measure barrel.
Kit includes single piece rubber tracks and display stand, it adds a new barrel to the original Trumpeter kit (Trumpeter – 07201 – German Sd.Kfz.182 King Tiger (Henschel Turret)), but the 8.8cm L/71 gun is present in the sprue.
