I'm reading this out of a book.
The Panzer VI "Tiger" is the most recegnizable tank of WWII, apart from the M4 Sherman. The Tiger's main weapon is an 88mm main gun, capable of shredding all Allied armor. But the Tiger was prone to breakdowns. Only 1,327 tigers were made. 50,000 shermans were made. A tiger would often eun out of ammo before the enemy ran out of tanks.
