The tank has a perfect, accurate gun and good armoring. However, it has a low movement speed. It is mainly used as a support heavy tank that can easily defend flanks. A pack of these tanks can dramatically change the situation in a battle.
Development of this 70-ton super-heavy tank started on November 1, 1941. In February 1942, the Krupp company suggested the VK 70.01 avant project, later designated the Löwe ("Lion"). Several designs varying in configuration, armament, and armor, were drafted. However, the project was canceled after the Führer made the decision to develop even heavier tanks. No prototypes were ever built.
