Bergepanzer TIGER (P)
Due to the enormous weight of the last German armoured vehicles, it was decided to start a project to equip the armoured units with recovery vehicles to support these gigantic machines. In September 1943, the Bergepanzer Tiger (P) appeared. Three VK 45.01 (P) Tiger prototype chassis from Porsche were modified with the assembly of a superstructure and various recovery devices, such as a small crane, timber beams and rams, although no special equipment was included for recovery itself. Two more examples were built by modifying two hulls from damaged Ferdinand tank destroyers that could not be modified as Elefant.
