508th Heavy Panzer Battalion (s.PzAbt 508 ) was sent to Italy in early February of 1944 in order to help to fight the Allies at Anzio. Transportation by rail ended at Ficulle in Italy, far from the enemy beachhead. Because Allied air superiority made further rail transport difficult,[3] the battalion drove the remaining distance, via Rome. One Tiger caught fire en route and was destroyed in an explosion. Sixty percent of the Tigers suffered mechanical breakdown on the 200-kilometre (120 mi) journey through the narrow, winding, mountainous roads.
I will build one of these Tigers.
