It is widely known that Adolf Hitler was a huge proponent of Wonder Weapons and felt they would win the War for Nazi Germany. And while we can see his “bigger is better” philosophy come through in such designs as the Maus tanks and Amerika bombers, it is a far lesser known fact just how large his aspirations were when it came to super-sized weaponry. Weighing in at 1,000 tons, this behemoth was designed to be a mobile platform for a pair of naval cannons accompanied by a super-heavy anti-tank gun as a secondary weapon, complete with Flak guns for its own air defense.
