Tank Machine Gun - Tiger

The Tank Machine Gun - Tiger is a heavy machine gun mounted in the Panzer VI Tiger heavy tank.

Description
This weapon is the primary defense against infantry for the tank. It is similar to the MG 42 used by infantry, but has a higher magazine capacity and has a magnification scope for an enhanced line of sight. Despite it's superiority in firepower and range, it can only be fired from the frontal side of the tank, making it less versatile than the Tiger's turret mounted 88 mm gun.

Hidden & Dangerous 2
The tank machine gun can be found mounted in the forward hull position of most Tiger tanks in Hidden & Dangerous 2.

Trivia
