Historical description:

The German E-100 was part of the so-called Entwicklung series – a program aimed at creating new-generation German tanks at the end of World War II. The E-100 Ausf.B was designed to compete with the legendary Maus tank in terms of weight and firepower, and represented the most advanced concept of a German super-heavy tank. The prototype was never completed and did not enter serial production due to the war’s end in 1945. Nevertheless, technical documentation and basic chassis components fell into Allied hands.
