The Panzerkampwagen VIa (Tiger 1) scored more hits because more of them were built and were in production earlier.

Addition by Fantacmet.

Production of the Tiger I, ran from August 1942 until August 1944. During that time 1376 Tigers were ordered and 1350 were delivered. The highest monthly output was April of 1944 at 104 Tanks produced that month. This number does not include variations such as the SturmTiger which used the same chassis but with a 380MM Rocket launcher instead of the 88mm Gun. This number also does not include tha JagdTiger which was armed with a 128mm Gun.

As for the Tiger II, there were only 489 of these built. Now I cannot confirm but I believe this number ONLY applies to the Tiger II's with the Henschel turret. There were earlier examples of these with Porche turrests because the Henchels were not yet available or some other political reason. There were less then 100 Porche turrent Tiger II's completed if memory serves correctly. Considering the number of Panzer Aces commanding Panzer VI's as opposed to the number commanding Panzer VI II's(Tiger and Tiger II respectively), I would say the afformentioned answer is going to be highly likely. The Panzer Aces commanding Tiger I's had an incredable kill ratio. Especially the infamous Michael Whittman.

Information gleaned from "The Tiger I & Tiger II Profile by Schiffer Military History."

ANSWER:In Agreement with the above it also has to be pointed out that the Tiger I also was involved in more Major battles than the King Tiger. Kill rate per tank was also higher with the Tiger I

Which is better tiger tank 1 or king tiger tank?

the tiger 1 was a really great tank. Tank commanders like Erwin Rommel used tigers. on the other hand the armor of the king tiger was used to reflect or ricochet shells all that armor made the tank heavier. The tiger was formed during the Battle of Kursk, when the germans were trying to figure out a way to protect their flak 88s while setting them up. They put armor around the 88 which formed the tiger. My tank would be the tiger its faster more powerful and more armor. The king tigers were rarely used after the battle of Remagen.


What is the gun of the king tiger tank?

The Tiger 1 used the 88mm Kwk L56 gun. The Tiger 2 (King Tiger) used the 88mm KwK 43 L/71 which had a significantly longer barrel and had a larger cartridge. Although based on a similar design these are different guns with the KwK 43 being significantly more powerful.

Who did Claudius bet on for the fight between Hamlet and Laertes?

Hamlet. Osric says, "The King, sir, has laid, sir, that in a dozen passes between yourself and him he shall not exceed you three hits." The "him" and "he" is Laertes. This is a point-spread bet. The king is betting that in twelve exchanges Laertes will not have a score three or more higher than Hamlet's. If Laertes hits Hamlet three more times than Hamlet hits him, Laertes wins, if he only hits him two more times than Hamlet does, the King wins. Laertes' reputation has given rise to these odds, but everyone seems to have underestimated Hamlet. Although the match ends after three exchanges, at that point the score is Hamlet 2, Laertes nil.
