Conception
On 23 June 1942 the German Ministry of Armaments proposed a 1,000 tonne tank – the Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte. Adolf Hitler himself expressed interest in the project and go-ahead was granted. In December the same year, Krupp designed an even larger 1,500 tonne tank – the P 1500 Monster.
In late 1944, Albert Speer, the Minister for Armaments, canceled both projects.
Purpose
This "land cruiser" was a self-propelled platform for the 800mm Schwerer Gustav artillery piece also made by Krupp – the largest artillery weapons ever built. Their 7 tonne projectiles fired up to 37 km (23 miles) and were designed for use against heavily fortified targets.
