Academy Military 1/35 Tiger-I Gruppe Fehrmann Kit
As the allies pushed east into Germany, available Wehrmacht forces were mobilized to delay and degrade British and American groups. One such force was a detachment of six Tiger and five Panther tanks which were dispatched in early April 1945 to face allied forces that had crossed the Rhein and were advancing along the Ruhr river. Oberleutnant Ferhmann led the six Tiger tanks in a series of skirmishes with British and American armor with the Tigers exacting serious damage to allied forces. The Panthers were lost early to British defenses while the Tigers were gradually lost to anti-tank defenses including an ambush by one British Comet tank.
