Following the rejection of his prototype design (see BG259) in favour of the Henschel Tiger, Ferdinand Porsche was left with a number of hulls and suspension systems which had been built in anticipation. However in keeping with Hitlers practice, the Porsche designs that had been built were also accepted, and with modifications these vehicles were then put into service on the Eastern Front. The remaining hulls were used to produce the Ferdinand (see G107), Elephant, Bergertiger (P) (see G106) and in the final form as the Tiger P2 (see BG89). This vehicle (chassis no. 150013) served as a command tank under the designation Panzerbefehlswagen VI(P). It fought in s.Pz.Jg.Abt.653 (schwere Heeres Panzerjager Abteilung 653) on the Eastern Front in early-to-mid 1944. The commander of the vehicle was Hauptmann Grillenberg, and it bore the turret number ‘003’. Our model has is finished in zimmerit as per photographic evidence. We also do a range of other vehicles used by Abt.653. See BG233, 234, 244 & 244F).
