Italeri 15770 - 1/56 Sd. Kfz. 186 Jagdtiger: A Historical Icon in Scale

The Italeri 15770 model kit offers a detailed representation of the Sd. Kfz. 186 "Jagdtiger," one of the most formidable tank destroyers deployed by Germany during World War II. Built on the extended chassis of the Tiger II, this vehicle was equipped with a powerful 128 mm PaK 44 cannon, capable of piercing the armor of contemporary Soviet heavy tanks like the IS-2. Despite its impressive armament and armor, the Jagdtiger's nearly 76-ton weight limited its maneuverability and reliability.

A Collector's Piece with Historical Significance

This 1/56 scale model captures the essence of the Jagdtiger's design and historical impact, making it a valuable addition to any military model collection. The kit provides an opportunity to appreciate the engineering challenges and strategic role of self-propelled tank destroyers in the latter stages of WWII.
