Ardennes offensive Tiger I tanks

Post by c.rainford73 »

How many Tiger I tanks participated in the Ardennes offensive?

I came across this bit of information tonight and wanted to know if anyone had anymore insight into this.

"schwere Panzerkompanie "Hummel" was assigned to schwere Panzer-Abteilung 506 as it's 4.Kompanie. At this point it had 8 Tiger Is while the balance of 506 had 47 Tiger IIs. These Tiger Is did fight in the battles in the Ardennes"

What did these Tiger's look like?

Any information would be appreciated.
Tanks alot.... :wave:

That one was taken in New Zealand!
It’s a bit more upside down than the ones in Australia!
