The Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus—aptly named after the German word for "mouse"—was a prototype developed during the Second World War. Designed as a super-heavy tank, it was armed with a formidable 128mm KwK 44 L/55 cannon, a secondary 75mm KwK 44 L/36.5 cannon, and a 7.92mm MG34 machine gun. Despite its ambitious design and powerful Daimler-Benz MB509 1,200 hp engine, the Maus never entered mass production, with only two prototypes built around 1943.
