Web site add;[http://www.jodavidsmeyer.com/combat/military/weapons-german-tanks.html]

It is stated here, that the "TigerII or King Tiger" was equipped with a 128mm gun.
Is there any truth to that?
Never heard of it myself.. :-)

The King Tiger was armed with an 88mm, the Maus was armed with the 128mm.

That is what I've learned us well. Just wanted to make sure.
So what I've discovered on that web site, is clearly a mistake!?

Unless someone can dig up some evidence to the contrary, yes.

It does seem that the Jagdtiger had a 128 gun. Other sources, including Chamberalain say so, as well.


RE: Check this out; - Soldier - 12-09-2006

Yes, I heard of the Jagdtiger mounting the 128mm gun, but that wasn't mentioned at the above web site.
It specifically named it; the TigerII or King Tiger, etc.
The King Tiger packet the 43/L71 88mm gun and not the 128mm gun as it is stated there.. :-)
