Footnotes

1 The SdKfz 182 Tiger II (also known as "King Tiger") was the successor to the Tiger I, combining the latter's thick armor with the armor sloping used on the Panther medium tank. It was armed with the long barrelled 8.8cm KwK 43 anti-tank cannon. Two turret designs were used in production vehicles. The initial design is often misleadingly called the "Porsche" turret due to the misbelief that it was designed by Porsche for their Tiger II prototype; in fact it was the initial Krupp design for both prototypes. This turret had a rounded front and steeply sloped sides, with a difficult-to-manufacture curved bulge on the turret's left side to accommodate the commander's cupola. Fifty early turrets were mounted to Henschel hulls and used in action. In December 1943 the more common "production" turret, sometimes erroneously called the "Henschel" turret, was simplified with a significantly thicker flat face (which eliminated the shot trap caused by the curved face of the earlier turret), and less-steeply sloped sides, which avoided the need for a bulge for the commander's cupola, and added additional room for ammunition storage. A total of 491 were produced from from mid-1944 to the end of the war.
