A Tiger, evidence of one found in Anzio, fitted with a crane. Its true purpose is unknown, possibly adapted as a mine-clearing device, as it lacked the power to lift even halftracks. Here's the wiki:

I highly doubt it, seeing that only one was ever recovered.

However, if there had been more discovered in ETO then I would probably take that as evidence that they were used on the Eastern Front.

I actually had no idea what a Bergetiger was until now thanks for posting about it lol

Judging by this model and if it is correct, it could have been used as an engine replacement vehicle.

The Bergetiger for the Panzer Elite faction was actually a munitions-handling conversion that was used solely in Italy..
