But the 88mm KwK 36 (L/56) could pierce approximately 100mm of homogenious steel, modern MBTs have armour equivalents of 900 to 1000mm against kinetic projectiles. The Pzkpfw Tiger II was a outstanding tank in WWII. However I think the weapon is hopelessly outdated by today's MBT's.
But the Tiger II, if smart, would have some sort of cover so that wouldn't be a problem. Both tanks could easily cut through each other's armor. If the Leopard were to run directly at the Tiger II it'd be suicide, but again, it depends largely on who shoots first. If they meet at range, I'd say the Tiger II has the advantage.
The Panther's 75 mm gun could penetrate the IS-2 model 1943's mantlet from 400 m (440 yd), turret from 800 m (870 yd), and driver's front plate from 600 m (660 yd). So it certainly wasn't like IS-2 had free reign. And the side armors of both of the tanks were vulnerable to being penetrated from several kilometers away.
The pak43 is one of the best conventional guns in the game, its high pen and velocity (combined with the pretty good scope on the tiger ii) means you preferably want to be at range (it was meant to engage from 4km irl. Fun fact, the longest range tank-to-tank kill in history was scored by a king tiger at 4.5km on a t-34-85). This is Tiger II vs M1A2 Abrams! Yes, a lot of people, including some of my viewers ask a lot, what happens if the ww2 tank goes against the modern tank? Wel Manufacturer:Takom. The SdKfz 182 Tiger II, or King Tiger, needs no introduction; almost every model company has had a go at the ultimate German tank of World War II. Takom takes its swing at the famous behemoth and brings something great to the table: the first all-plastic kit to include a full interior and all of the engine components.
3rd: 1 tank each to D, E, H, and I Companies of the 32nd Armored Reginment and 1 tank each to companies D, E, H, and I of the 33rd Armored Regiment. 9th: 5 tanks to A Company 14th Tank Battalion, 1 tank to A Company, 2 to B Company and 2 to C Company of the 19th Armored Battalion. 3rd Armored crews finished training on the tank on 20 February 1945.
The 68-tonne behemoth is one of only eight King Tiger tanks remaining from the roughly 490 built during World War Two. "The Tiger is probably the most famous German tank from the war, but the King
The 502nd Heavy Panzer Battalion, was one of Germany's most successful heavy tank battalions during the Second World War, claiming the destruction of 1,400 t
Historically, the Tiger II with 105mm gun is pure fantasy. There is nothing more than a proposal to mount the 105mm in the Tiger II. The gun's breech was deemed too large to fit inside the turret while retaining the space for the loader to handle the two-piece ammunition, so the project never moved forward. 6. [deleted] OP • 2 yr. ago. "Ultimately, the sight of a Tiger 1, Jumbo and IS-1 (and eventually the Tiger II, IS-2 and Pershing) should be rare, exciting and terrifying to the enemy, and indicate specific intentions of the Commander". Developer Briefing #135 - Armour Overhaul.
“The Joseph Stalin tank that we encountered in 1944 was at least equal to the Tiger. It was significantly better in terms of shape (like the T-34),” wrote German tank ace Otto Carius in his

Description. This book examines the technology and strategy that defined the outcome of the battles between the King Tiger and the IS-2. The Soviets had been quick to develop tanks that could fight the Tiger on an equal footing, but these were developed as part of a completely different strategy than that employed by the Germans. The 88mm L71 KwK 43 tank gun, joined by the excellent optics, was able to pierce any enemy tank on long ranges; front armor was able to whithstand any enemy anti-tank gun, large battle tracks permitted the tank to offer a ground pressure of only 0.74 Kg/cm2 (when the tracks sunk of 20 cm in the ground), speed of a remarkable maximum of 41.5 Kmh

Not surprised that reports show the KT performed better in tank to tank combat, it is a tank hunter. It's disappointing to see when forumers say that IS-2 is equal in tank to tank combat because of that famous Russian testing on a KT, where's pierced all around.
