Italeri 1/35 Tiger Support Vehicle Model Kit

Tiger recovery and support vehicles were essential for maintaining the massive 56-ton Tiger I tanks in the field, as only specialized heavy equipment could tow or recover a disabled Tiger. These support vehicles typically used hulls of damaged or obsolete tanks modified with cranes, winches, and towing equipment. The logistics train required to keep Tigers operational was enormous, with each heavy tank battalion needing dedicated recovery assets. Italeri's 1/35 kit includes the recovery equipment and field workshop details.
