VK 72.01 (K) German Super Heavy Tank

The VK72.01(K) was designed by Krupp as a super heavy tank for the German army during WWII. The VK 72.01 (K) was the last "Löwe" (Lion) design which never progressed beyond a wooden mock up. The design was dropped in March 1942 in favour of the Maus. The design, a Leichter Löwe weighing 72tons, had a rear mounted turret and (likely) a 105mm L/70 high velocity gun. An interesting kit, this appears to be largely a World Of Tanks inspired kit.
