The Tamiya 1/35 Jagdtiger Early Version (35295) reproduces the most heavily armoured and most powerful tank destroyer ever to enter production — the Jagdtiger that combined the King Tiger hull with an enormous casemate mounting the 12.8cm PaK 44. No Allied tank could withstand a hit from the 12.8cm gun, and the Jagdtiger's front armour was virtually impenetrable. However, its immense weight made it prone to mechanical breakdown and difficult to operate tactically.
The Early Version kit reproduces the Jagdtiger with the Porsche-pattern bogie suspension used on the initial production vehicles. A formidable and impressive 1/35 centrepiece.
