Can totally appreciate that it's failing was how well made it was. Compared to other slapped together tanks this is luxury. What an absolute marvel.
Otto Carius said he never had a Tiger I break down mechanically in combat; only on long marches. He said the Tigers were extremely reliable when properly maintained. The problem was that they were often pushed past their maintenance schedules due to constant fighting.
@@widehotep9257 i can imagine that, especially once they started up the Eastern front.
The TIGER is just a beautiful piece of engineering. I love it. It has had and will continue to have a special place in my heart. Der Tiger ist einer meiner Lieblingspanzer!!
Beautiful tank.There is more space inside this tiger tank than now in those modern Tanks
There's so much detail inside .it seems every little thing was thought out. What a.machine!!!
It doesn't seem like. It was =D
I am 5ft 10 mate,, good Tankie size, have to say the interior of Tiger 1 is quite roomy.

"If you look here ..."
Camera doesn't look there.
"Maybe we'll show you a picture of that later...."
Or you could edit it in right there?
you presented almost all except showing us the direct view through the gunner aim sight and put camera to the small openings to enable us to see what visibility the crew had...besides that, presentation was excellent
If it is anything like my telescope, cameras do not pick up image well whatsoever(like really bad and small looking on camera vs human eye) through a lens such as that. May not be the same situation as my telescope though so just a thought.
this
ill keep the likes at 88 as the tiger's main gun was an kwk 8,8
It was a lousy presentation
9:10 seeing it drive this way is so awesome!!!! it looks amaising! the suspension the way the gearbox works... its just incredible for the time!
+valkyrie 1960s It's astounding to me that a simple torsion bar (basically solid metal cylinders that twist) suspension could support that hulk over bumps.
OOZ662 well they're pretty torqued in the direction of travel to endure such forces
Would be cool to keep the engine sound of the Tiger in the video on the end -.- Instead of the generic WOT music.
jermster17 Thanks captain obvious..I know what the Tiger sounds like but it would make the video a whole lot better on that ending.
There's no pleasing some is there!?
I watched the whole,video series to hear it purring
I bet its so that other tank games,cant steal the sound bite to the last endangered tiger
@@Shiraumere wait what? That the sound of the engine? Wow it sound like a piston pushing a metal or something.
I just wanted to say thanks for making this video series. I am no video gamer, but I do watch plenty of WW11 docos and this is the first time I have actually been able to have a good look at Tiger 131.
World war eleven, you say?
Ooooppppssss; Didnt you get the invitation?
Must have lost your email details, you know how it happens.
Terribly sorry old bean, would you like an invite to WW X11?
***** He wanted to say World War II but had shift activated.
max mustermann That would be like WW!!
Sorry guys I always did have a problem with Roman numerals. After all what have the Romans ever done for us? Monty Python quote you fill in the rest your self.
Thank you - what a great series!! SO sad that we had to listen to loud music at the end rather than being able to hear her run though. :(
A magnificent beast of a machine. It had it's problems which I'm sure could have been solved if the Germans had not gone on to other designs such as the Panther and Tiger II. Simply concentrating on refining their three main designs, thereby conserving valuable time, effort and resources.
1. Panzer III (reworking all the hulls to Stug III).
2. Panzer IV developed further. Up gunned, upgraded engine, redesigned suspension and even implementing the planned sloped armour for the front. They were all planned upgrades not implemented because of Panther.
3. Refining the Tiger 1. Minor redesign, making it easier to produce and more reliable.
what an incredible machine. After all talk about the engine and many components of the machine its amazing to see it in action.
Also, impressive to think that these tank crews and mechanics had to keep track of all these aspects in harsh, blazing hot dessert conditions while also experiencing combat
Fascinating video -- great to see the inside of these classic tanks.

Have seen a Tiger 2 tank in Samuar France, at the tank museum ( 66 tonne of German engineering ) such a beast of military power!
I served with Richard and he's doing a great job here I'm so jealous! It's interesting to see how many features on this tank got carried on to it's modern counterparts
Thank you for taking the time and effort to put together a series of videos on the Tiger. Really appreciate it.
Thanks for this series Richard.
It was very informative and appreciated!!!!
Extremely well done. Congratulations on this series.
She is a beautiful tank. The epitome of tank in its looks
Wow brilliant series. The Tiger 1 looks quite ahead of the game for it's day. Roomy too when compared to the Sherman's, churchills and T-34s especially.
The Sherman was also pretty roomy if memory serves, with the exception of early models with the 76mm and the Firefly.
@@ericamborsky3230The Sherman is in my opinion, the best tank on the Allied side.
These vid's are great, to see the internals of these tanks and how they operate is a treat. One small request though, drop the background music, it is soooooo irritating!!
fantastic set of videos and very well presented. thank you very much.
Fantastic review of this fearsome machine!
Please review a Tiger II "King Tiger", one of the most fearsome and beautiful tanks of its day!
does it even exists anymore?
+Mr.Destroyer yes we discovered one under a road in france it doesn't work but there is another one that works
Deeo One in operational conditon at samur museum france. (;
***** saumur*
I've been there this machin is amazing
Gigi
I have never seen the inside of a tiger till now, pretty cool
Another worthy addition to the Wargaming family of well done videos on classic AFVs. Thanks for posting this one, especially, as I believe that the Tiger, despite its later bad press over weight and engine stress concerns, was the first example of an MBT; able to do it all and (often) survive.
Such an iconic AFV, and so well maintained and restored. Wonderful video
Great Job Challenger, just wanted to say how much I enjoyed this series, informative and really interesting,great to hear from someone who has actually served on armour
Amazing , all five parts, thank you !
Man... these videos are great... so much detailed information... 5 Stars to the crew that produces these! Now, if only we had a more than a 1 Star Arcade-Game to go with it!
I have such an appreciation for German engineering
Yep. Me too.
Falk M.............Oh yeah.........you havn't a clue, have you?........if it wasn't for German and British engineering, most of the things we take for granted today wouldn't exist!
Falk M..........blimey, you don't know a lot do you?........:)
Falk M......just one question, Are you an American?
what kind of British engineering are you talking about?
Absolutely nice, that's a totally Tiger Tank review. It's impressive to see this so old and revolutionary early S.XX technology. Many thanks for your job!!
Great video man, that was a blast!
Great set of videos....I really enjoyed all five!!
Awesome series. Thank mate. Keep them coming.
Nice movie! Thanks for uplouding this!
such a sexy tank isnt it
xgc666 ALL german tanks are sexy and WORLD BEATERS. that's why they've been the best since the A7V (which on the battlefield was better than the mk4)
I think they are fugly and clunky. I'd grant they were powerful, but not very exciting or even interesting. Just an overpowered brute. I think the Pz III and IV are far more interesting.
Indeed
Yes!!
john martin the AV7 was not better than the mk 4, it got stuck, it tipped on its side exposing an almost completely unarmored underside and required more than twice as many men to operate,
and most importantly it couldn’t cross trenches, Which means it was completely useless at breaking the stalemate in the trenches of ww1,
There’s a reason less than 20 were ever made
Aah wow! Brilliant review! Can't wait to get my hands on a virtual one in WOT!!
Fascinating video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for great review!
Great job on the Videos! !!
Awesome, many thanks.
Foarte pricepuți, cei doi ghizi. Probail, sunt instructori militari.
Felicitări !

just breath taking , awesome !
Its good to see a knowledgable person presenting. very interesting.
Great videos, thank you!
This music is playing 24/7 on newly installed speakers throughout the Capital in DC...it never stops. If you're visiting, listen closely. It never stops.
Panzergranate 39 (APCBC) 22.48 pounds, Panzergranate 40 (APCR) 16 pounds, Granate 39 HL (HEAT) 16.8 pounds. Gota feel bad for the loader having to load the shells, also, the Turmzielfernrohr TZF 9c was on of my favourite gun sights.
Why do you think the loders had to work out
Great Idea,
Challenger
Fantastic series, thanks for this W.E.
An absolutely beautiful tank.
Richard Cutland is an impressive commentator on these tanks.
Amazing piece of equipment
Quite detailed review
So elegant, so efficient (with some flaws but it was designed in the 40's), quite an incredible killing machine, with 10,000 of them Germany might've been invincible
From 42 to 44 Henschel produced 1350 Panzerkampfwagen VI "Tiger"... Still enough to make Tommies and Americans equally escape their own tanks and run away on sight. :D Eventhough I do not appreciate the ideals and politics of my ancestors at all, I can't help but admire their accomplishments in warfare & technology.
TheSchuetzeP yes indeed, ahead of its time!
Half of Tigers were lost because its very complex design or they run out of fuel. Only half of the tigers were lost in combat. Crew had to blow it up and retreat. Even with 10000 Tiger Germans would have lost the war because allied forces owned the sky.
Warrantti Pls get me right: I do not at all wanted them to win this war ^^
Warrantti if germany found the oil it has now in europe america would own nothing anymore and half the world would speak german still makes me wonder how the world would have looked if germany would have won because there would be 1 nation instead of what we have now which is also not working out well...
This tank looks SOO beast!
I did, the Churchill MKV11, it was one of the first Videos.
Thx for the detailed explanations. aappreciated.
Not always, as an example the commanders "vision blocks" on CR2.
Its amazing to think these were around so long ago
Am fascinated by the engineering of the tiger tank , seeing the interior for the first time one would think it’s a modern tank
great collection of video,s,,,,,,,, great tank
Very interesting !
im really really really happy if i touched with my own hands. The ww2 panzer especially tiger 1 & panther also Jagdtiger hope that dream come true XD
with your greasy hands? forget about it.
Ben P. Omg💀
There is one operational in the Musée des Blindés, Saumur, France and currently one is being restored to running condition in a long term project at the Swiss Military Museum in Full, Switzerland
I am surprised at the lack of oblique surfaces to deflect projectiles. Other than that, the German engineering is amazing. I started out in the tool and die trade and have such an appreciation for machinery.
Oh I am so looking forward to that already. :)
A wonderful machine, excellent engineering.
Great series, although would love to see some half tracks, raketenwerfer, Sturmgeschutz, Panzer 3, Wespe, hummel and Wirbelwind.
Kiowhatta C I don't think there are any wirbelwinds left
50 shades of tay well there was only like 20 made now if they had the ostwind I'd be impressed as that existed in prototype only
Amazing !!!!!!
Yeah, you should visit the "Musée des Blindés" at Saumur in France and get a full tour of their Pz.Kpfw.VI Ausf.B (Tiger II).
What a machine for the day....
très instructive votre vidéo WG ;) un GRAND MERCI de la part du clan les Focheurs ;)
Many thanks Richard for the tour. It was enjoyable and informative, and gave a great insight into what it might have been like to have been a crew member.
I'm not too sure why I thought these would have run on diesel. Was petrol the norm for German tanks?
It was decided early on that all tanks would be petrol so that diesel could be used solely for the German navy.
@@richardillingworth2271 Oh I see. Thank you.
It's beautiful.
This Emergency Hatch is not a Constuction Fail. A Emercency Hatch had to open as quick as possibile. Every Second is Important in a Emergency Situation.
The Germans did nothing without a reason. Think about it, please. :)
+Bernd Woelffel Just a quick comment, a hatch on the side so the crew have to exit high on vehicle (not great) and quite susceptible to fire.
+Wargaming Europe Ok, now i understand. I missunderstud something. Sorry:)
+Wargaming Europe yeah well i'd rather get shot at than getting burnt alive
+Bernd Woelffel
It is a less than ideal hatch because it cannot be closed from the inside, unless you attach a rope to it. It would have been much more convenient with its hinge at the side.
+David Byrden it's an emergency hatch. there is no reason to ever close it from the inside. if you have to close it from the inside it means that you are a moron who doesn't know what an emergency hatch is.
Tnx Richard :)
What a beast.
ITS *LEGENDARY* , I LOVE Germany!
Nemeth Mapper the only reason to hate Germany is if you believe the lies about it created by the criminalistic "all-lies"
glareola. *WUT!?*
@@himmlstoss basically they take alot of refugees from the middle east
Tiger 131 was scraped, it was the most documented one because of the 6hrs of enemy fire and still drove 60km out of danger
It wasn’t scraped you can visit it at the tank museum in the UK.
Errata:
Narration says that the commander has 6 vision blocks, in fact he has 5.
Narration says that the breathing tubes were an alternative to gas masks; in fact they were used to connect the gas filter to the gas mask and keep it out of the way.
We are shown the breech opening lever and told that it's the safety switch. The safety switch is the small grey box above it.
I would love to hear more music compositions in game, save that up for a future update, because it would be a great idea
Its quite comfortable inside for a tank, and I know understand why Tiger1 was squared - better crew comfort + much easier approach to repair or replace its moduls. However, Tigers 100mm of frontal armor (hull and turret) was not enough later in war, when Soviets had 85mm on their t34 and KV tanks, so tiger2 and panther had angled armor but I guess as both were quite large tanks, that crew comfort was never an issue in german war machines. Unlike the soviet ones. Its like comparing hotel room in Ritz and in some Bangkok motel .
first version with the very large "dust bin" cupola. Changed in later versions to a far lower model because of it being a large hazard to the commander from enemy fire.
My goodness that place is huge
When are you guys gonna do the PANTHER!!! I briefly snuck inside the rear hatch of a Panther in a German museum many years ago. Had to get out quick though, before the museum watch discovered me. It was amazing.
I love this tank very very very much
What a machine!
Tank you
Tanks for the memories.
What? How could they have such a good system technology in WW2 era
How about the cupola's visibility? it it possible to cover 360 degree by moving commander's head and leaning to the sights? taking into account of refraction of the thick bullet proof glass.
Dam beast
Just the impression I get from the video, it looks like a better interior than the panther, more well thought out.
Something funny about this beautiful killing machine, Otto Carius(one of the greatest Tiger I tank commanders that lived) once described the Tiger I as "Plump" and found it to be ugly lol
It is. Its a fat box on wide tracks, with a squat turret and a big gun. If you tried to sell a car with proportions like that, people would laugh at you. Panther is a far better machine, the Pz III is far more balanced looking. Even the Sherman is probably better looking than the Tiger, overall. The Tiger looks like someone's caricature of a Pz III, increased to twice the armor and gun bore.
ftffighter tiger1 is one of the best tanks but its still one of the ugliesr
I personally think it's the sexiest tank of all... of course it depends on the taste of the individual
If I compare any German WW2 warship to their British, US or any other counterparts I have to say, German design is not only technically, but also in terms of esthetics the absolute top.
"feldfasche" made my day. It´s spelled "FeldfLasche" correctly :)
Most iconic tank ever!
I do believe this tank is the most fearful in WW2.😁😁😁
The UK has awesome museums.
a such beautiful and fascinating tank, not in our german hands, making me sad :(
one day i will visit the tank museum just to see this beautie
Well you Germans weren't playing nicely with your toy so mummy and daddy had to take it away for a while
+Kajakev and then that weird uncle that noone likes took away the biggest of the toys
smartyfan00 I've been to the tank museum and its pretty impressive
xD
You blew all of yours up
My fav tank
