1/35 Military Miniature Series no.177
German 38cm Assault Mortar Sturmtiger
Item No: 35177
A Fearsome Foe
With a 38cm mortar launcher based upon the Tiger I hull, the Sturmtiger was a fearsome prospect that was intended for use against heavily fortified positions. The launcher was originally developed by the Navy for use against submarines: it fired 149cm, 30kg rockets with a range of 4.6 kilometers. Sturmtigers were manufactured from August 1944 onwards using modified Tiger I hulls, with 18 produced by the end of the year; early vehicles were sent to Poland, and Sturmtigers were active in the defense of the German homeland as the Allies advanced in the closing stages of WWII.
