Sd.Kfz.181 Tiger I Gruppe Fehrmann

The Fehrmann Group was a rather interesting unit that was formed towards the end of the Second World War. Germany was under pressure from the Soviets and the Allies from both east and west at the time, and Wehrmacht units were regularly disbanded and reorganised.
One such provisional unit formed in early 1945 was Gruppe Fehrmann, named after Oberleutnant Fehrmann, who led a formation of six Tiger I tanks and five Panthers.
These tanks carried an "F" prefix to designate their unit and were numbered from F01 to F13.
This unit fought in Lower Saxony on the Western Front against the Allies, and in battles along the Weser and Aller rivers, the German tanks were destroyed one by one.
The Tigers of this unit were a mixture of early and late versions, such as an early production turret and a late production hull.
