Correct me if I am wrong, but I was under impression that Porche lost the bid to build Tigers, though? And all the chassis they built for it were instead used for the Ferdinand.
Nah wiki says your right. A company called Henschel made the tiger. Krupp helped with the tiger 2. Porsche was barley involved. I didn't even know he competed for the contract, I thought he just coined the name.
Because they were prohibitively expensive in materials to make. They were diesel electric. Like modern trains. But all the copper needed made them unfeasible.
