Default RE: Tiger I early, in panzer grey and with Feifel filters

The answer to your question is yes and no, all Tiger battalions received Tigers with and without Fifels in 42-43 this is down to a few factors one being that it’s only modellers who class Tigers as Early, mid and late, when in fact they should be called by the month they were released as modifications and up-grades happened all the time as did deliveries and in the years 43-43 there was a vast amount of changes one simply can’t look at an early picture from the winter of 42 and say that all early Tigers delivered to that particular unit were all the same, I have no intentions of listing all the alterations to Tigers here best thing you can do is buy a few decent books and research the subject yourself don’t try and rely on web sites you will find that a lot are wrong and have miss caption pictures
