The Tiger Ausf. B combined the pros and cons of German tank design and construction. Ideas for the Tiger II were based on previous designs and omitted the excesses and disadvantages of earlier vehicles. This tank allows us to evaluate what the German tank industry achieved and what could have happened in future developments.

The book deals with the background and development of the Tiger Ausf.B, its production history and construction features, and the evaluation of the captured vehicles by the Red Army during field testing.
