UA35028 FIST OF WAR, GERMAN E100 SUPER HEAVY TANK, AUSF.G, 105MM TWIN GUNS

The E-100 was an experimental German WWII super heavy tank. The only prototype hull of this tank was built in 1943 or 1944. The car never entered mass production. The E-100 was to be powered by a single engine Maybach HL 230 P30 or Maybach HL 234 with 700 hp and 800 hp respectively. It was probably armed with a 128mm KwK 44 L / 55 gun and 2 machine guns MG34 cal. 7.92 mm. Tank prototype The E-100 was created as part of the Entwicklungsserie program, a program for the development of German armor, which was to lead to a standardized design of a series of six tanks of different weights, but using as many common components as possible. The E-100 tank in this project was to be the heaviest tank, based on the chassis of the Pz.Kpfw VI Tiger II Ausf. B. The emphasis was on the strongest possible main armament and powerful armor - especially at the front of the turret and hull. However, the project, despite its far-reaching advancement, was abandoned in 1944, and the E-100 never entered mass production.
