Trying to take out a Tiger I with a .45 was pure, grade 'A' Hollywood

I've just checked out Spielberger's book 'Tiger' which has a good photo of the driver's position. The glass is a solid block, bullet-proof and looks to be at least 2cm thick.It is clamped into an internal frame for ease of changing if damaged.
