During World War II, the super heavy tank Rat tank

The Rat type super heavy tank was designed by the German company Porsche at the end of World War II, with a combat weight of 188 tons, making it the heaviest tank at that time. It is precisely because of the extremely heavy body that the off-road capability of the mouse tank is extremely poor, ultimately resulting in its failure due to a lack of practical value.

In April 1943, Germany formulated a plan for the production of general-purpose, standardized, and serialized tanks, and the E-series tank plan was a manifestation of this idea. The E-series tanks include models such as E-5, E-10, E-25, E-50, E-75, and E-100. The E-100 super heavy tank has invested the most research and development resources among them. The development of E-100 began in June 1943 and was carried out by the Adola company. In 1944, Hitler issued an order to halt the development of the E-100 tank in order to concentrate on the development of the "Mouse" tank.
