History

The Heavy Support Tank Destroyer was designed by Poland in the mid 40s, the design involved a Tiger 2 base with a tank destroyer modification, it had a weapon that could provide infantry support with its rocket artilery.

It was fitted with a few mgs, one belonging to the Hull, and one specifically for the commander

"900"

"900" was first made when it was made from captured Tiger II, it's turret was removed and had a new design of being a tank destroyer, it was fitted with unguided rockets that were provided from Poland's allies, this tank proved that Poland had excellent engineering, the single tank, "900" had scored a few tank kills and ally infantry was proud on what it could do incase they were being pinned down by enemy infantry.

After the war, it was planned to be scrapped because it wasn't that useful, but it was put on like a statue in one of Poland's cities as a display.

Later decades, "900" would be restored from its terrible condition of being rusty, and corroded.

As of present day,

"900" is now preserved in a Polish tank museum.

    @WritersCrusadersAirCo It's main role is to be mainly a tank sniper, thus the long gun's radius, that's why it should be treated and used at long range, also Poland had technical issues of getting heavy armor for the tank.
