This model depicts a fully poseable SDKFZ 184 Elefant WWII German Self-propelled Gun.
The Panzerjäger Tiger (P) Elefant (Sd.Kfz. 184) was a Panzerjäger (tank hunter) of the German Wehrmacht in World War II. They were originally built under the name Ferdinand, after their designer, Ferdinand Porsche.
The units were deployed at a company level, sometimes sub-divided into platoons, with infantry or tanks to protect the vulnerable flanks of the vehicles. On the attack, this Jagdpanzer was a first-strike vehicle, while in defence, they often comprised a mobile reserve used to blunt enemy tank assaults.
In terms of kills per loss, the Ferdinand/Elefant might well have been the most successful tank-destroyer employed during the war, reaching an average ratio of approximately 10:1. However, this impressive ratio is primarily due to its extreme relationship between firepower and protection which gave it an enormous advantage when used in a defensive role. Its mobility and mechanical reliability, left a lot to be asked for, giving its crew only limited possibilities to move across the battlefield, outmaneuver its enemies and fire from excellent positions.
