[quote="Capt. John Miller":0094a]Tiger = open field tank, not a city fighting tank. Plus hes right the hatches are unlocked incase it takes a direct hit and catches fire, you can bale out quicker[/quote:0094a]

Yeah but in any type of fighting environment especially against the americans they didn't have much to worry about as the sherman was about as effective as a peashooter against the tiger. Ive read on a lot of sites that tigers did not go into combat situations with their hatches unlocked. Even that scene with the tank commander sitting with his hatch open talking to a soldier was blasted by a lot of re-enactment groups saying that would not have happened.

As far as historical accuracey goes, spr is not accurate in a lot of ways and just plain bullshit propoganda in others, all skinhead germans anyone? oOo:
