This staple heavy tank is armed with the Rambock rail cannon, where each shell can apply 400 points of damage to the enemy. It carries considerably more armor and firepower than the Jaguar, making it an excellent choice against ground units and motherships. The tradeoff in carrying all of this armor is slower movement, which makes the Tiger vulnerable to air attacks. But again, it is well served by its heavy armor, despite a quad-diesel drive train. Tigers become available early in the campaign, just a few missions after the Jaguar, as a technology upgrade.
