Commanders!
If you’re into Tiger tanks, you’re in for a treat. Our Tier VIII of the week is actually a Tier VII, and a Tiger in the making. Although it only existed in blueprints, the VK 45.03 is directly inspired by the prototypes built for the Tiger II. Hence its unique and curvy turret, which is directly taken from the designs of the Porsche firm in their competition for the Königstiger contract. Add it to your collection right now, and make good use of its accurate gun on the battlefield!

Not worth it.
Sluggish and bad turret.
The old vka was awesome
Meanwhile the actual tier 7 Tiger II is on American techtree.
The tank can be rather good when using him like a real sniper, and only using your hp and your medium armor at the end of a game.
The turret was a Krupp-design. Porsche had nothing to do with it.
It is not a bad tank. If you sidescrape well, you can do many Things with it.
But at Tier 7, you never know in what Kind of battle you land… and then you see an Obj. 252 in front of you….
the tank is basically good. the major downside is the turret. its front is basically an autopen for all non-HE guns. and you cannot play turretdown.
otherwise its good but balanced. armor of the hull works (if angled), DPM is normal for tier 7 and the rest of the gun: it\’s the 8,8 L/71 (minus the Tiger I\’s unnormal DPM) – great for tier 7.
The Kingtiger (C) is better as its armor is much more reliable, but also slower and even lower dpm.
