The tank is painted in a flat Dunkelgelb yellow coat, though there are large swatches bare metal from scratched off paint. However, it is the basis of the Tiger I tanks with the three features: the long 88 mm KwK36 gun, the Schachtellaufwerk interleaving torsion suspension system, and a box armour shape of the hull with a circular turret housing the 88 mm gun. The Tiger H1 is an early production variant of the Tiger I tanks.

Mobility is also decent for a heavy tank due to its 650 hp engine and suspension, making the Tiger H1 a near jack-of-all-trades at its level. The armour of the Tiger H1 is strong at 102 mm and can be easily increased by angling the tank approximately 30° to the side, with the side armour thick enough for glancing side fire as well. The Tiger H1 carries its reputation from real-life to its in-game performances, armed with the infamous 88 mm KwK36 gun that can easily destroy most tanks it meets. It was introduced during the Closed Beta Test for Ground Forces before Update 1.41.
