The mighty Panzerkampfwagen E-100 is a mysterious German prototype super-heavy tank developed in the final stages of World War II. The vehicle was designed as part of the Entwicklungsserie program, aimed at developing a series of unique armored vehicles of various types. Work started in 1943 but was discontinued by 1944. The Henschel company tried to continue its work to a limited extent. It became possible to produce the hull on which, according to plans from 1943, a modified Maus tank turret was to be mounted. Further modifications were also considered to allow the installation of even larger caliber guns. Captured by the Allies, the hull was sent to Great Britain for testing in 1945, and later scrapped. There is only a modest photographic and drawing documentation of the E-100 tank. Due to its uniqueness and size, the vehicle is very popular and often appears not only in historical literature, but also in games and documentaries.
