The Tiger tank, weighing 48 tons, is 8.45 meters long, 3.4 meters wide (3.56 meters wide with combat tracks) and 2.66 meters high. It has a 1,200 hp Maybach gasoline engine with a maximum speed of 50 km/h. Armament is an 88 mm 56x caliber tank gun and two 7.92 mm machine guns. In terms of armor, the frontal armor of the turret was 120 mm at a 30-degree bevel, and the frontal armor of the armor was 100 mm at a 35-degree bevel. The side and rear armor was 85 mm 60 degrees beveled. In addition, the thickness of the gun shield was 150 mm.

The Tiger tank is much more powerful than the Panther tank in terms of firepower and armor. Except for the fact that it is a little slower because of its heavier weight, the rest of the performance is very strong. Compared to the Tiger tank in another time and space, the Tiger tank also has better armor performance. In addition, the armor is fully obliquely armored, and in the case of the same armor thickness, the bulletproof ability is ahead of the vertical armor.

Qin Tian stood in front of a 'Tiger' tank that had just left the factory and had not yet been painted. The pitch-black tank, shining with a cold metallic light, looks so powerful that people can't help but feel awe of it.

Thanks to his efforts, the German military production and R&D capabilities of this time and space are much ahead of those of another time and space. This enabled the German army to begin to equip itself with these advanced weapons in 1936. Once the war broke out, the German army would definitely be able to use these advanced weapons to catch the enemy by surprise. This would give Germany a great advantage in the war.

"Your Majesty, the performance of the 'Tiger' tank is much more advanced than that of the 'Black Panther' tank. However, it is also much more expensive. At present, let's produce a small amount and equip the sharp knife troops, I agree. When the time comes, we can rely on these 'Tiger' tanks to crush the most powerful enemies and directly destroy their will to fight. For the rest of the enemy, just let the 'Panther' tank deal with it! Admiral Guderian said.

"Even the 'Black Panther' tank, there is no way to deal with those enemies at the moment. Compared to the armored forces of the Empire, they are too much worse! Admiral Rommel looked proud. He was proud that the empire was able to have the most advanced tanks in the world, the most powerful armored corps.

Qin Tian smiled and said to his two favorite generals: "War is the best catalyst. After the outbreak of war, the science and technology of various countries, especially the military industry, will develop rapidly. When the time comes, our opponents will become stronger and stronger. In the early days of the war, the 'Black Panther' tank will undoubtedly be in the limelight and hit the enemy. However, when their more advanced tanks enter service, the 'Panther' tanks will be struggling. So, we need more powerful tanks. The Tiger is nothing more than our first mass-produced heavy tank. There will be more advanced tanks in service later. ”

Admiral Guderian and Admiral Rommel all nodded their heads one after another, and Germany has always been at the forefront of the world in terms of weapons and equipment. In this respect, these generals are impeccable.

"Generals, I am responsible for providing you with the most advanced and powerful weapons in the world. And you are responsible for using your ingenuity to win the war for me and the Empire! I've done everything I could, and I hope you'll be able to do what you're supposed to do! Qin Tian said with a smile. All of this he worked hard for had only one goal, and that was to win the war. If it fails, all the efforts will be in vain.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We promise that we will be able to win! Admiral Guderian looked firm.

Admiral Rommel nodded solemnly, and he was equally convinced that future victories would be theirs.

The next day, Qin Tian went to the General Staff to attend a seminar on new tactics. Present at the meeting were not only army generals, but also air force generals. Because, the tactic to be discussed this time is the blitzkrieg proposed by Qin Tian.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Empire now has the most powerful armored forces in the world, the most powerful army and air force. Advanced weaponry has brought about tremendous changes. At the same time, our tactics have changed dramatically. The tactics used in the last world war, twenty years later, are clearly impractical and outdated. Therefore, I hope that our army will be at the forefront of the world not only in terms of weapons and equipment, but also in terms of tactics. In this way, we will have a greater certainty of defeating those strong enemies and winning the war in future wars! Qin Tian said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" All the generals replied.

"Today's discussion will focus on how to apply the armored forces and the air force. I call this tactic a blitzkrieg. That is, in the early stage of the war, the air force was dispatched on a large scale to bomb the enemy's front-line airfields and destroy all the enemy's fighters on the airfields, so as to completely ensure the air supremacy of many front-lines. After that, the army attacked. As the forward unit of the army, the armored unit uses its powerful assault capability to tear through the enemy's defense line, and then constantly intersperses and encircles the enemy's in-depth defense, dividing the enemy's living forces and forming one encirclement after another. The infantry followed the armoured forces and took over from the armoured forces after the armoured forces had completed the encirclement and eliminated the enemy in the encirclement. And the armored forces can continue to carry out assaults. In this way, we will not only be able to destroy the enemy's frontal defenses, but at the same time make it impossible for the enemy to organize a strong defense at all. Before the enemy's defenses could be organized, they were bombed by the Imperial Air Force and attacked by armored forces. In this way, the enemy is defeated again and again. In this way, it will undoubtedly be easier for us to win the ability on the battlefield! Qin Tian said.

The air force seizes air supremacy, and the armored forces quickly assault and divide the encirclement, which is undoubtedly the essence of blitzkrieg. Although Qin Tian didn't know much about specific tactics, he could put forward the things he knew, and then let those professionals refine and deduce, and finally form tactics that could really be applied to actual combat.

According to the ideas proposed by Qin Tian, the generals began to brainstorm. At the same time, the deduction began on the sand table. With the help of a large number of operational staff officers, the tactics of blitzkrieg will soon take shape. It is only necessary to go to the battlefield after the outbreak of war to conduct a test.
