In early October 1942, plans for production of the VK 45.03 were reviewed，Initially two designs were provided, one by Henschel and one by Porsche. Both used a turret design from Krupp; the main differences were in the hull design, transmission and suspension.
The Henschel version used a conventional hull design with sloped armor resembling the layout of the Panther tank. It had a rear mounted engine and used nine overlapping road wheels per side, mounted on transverse torsion bars, in a similar manner to the original Tiger. To simplify maintenance, however, the wheels were overlapping rather than interleaved as in the Tiger
Henschel won the contract, and all Tiger IIs were produced by the firm. Two turret designs were used in production vehicles. The initial design is sometimes misleadingly called the "Porsche turret" due to the belief that it was designed by Porsche for their prototype. In fact this turret was simply the initial Krupp design for both prototypes. This turret had a rounded front and steeply sloped sides, with a difficult-to-manufacture curved bulge on the turret's left side, to accommodate the commander's cupola. Fifty early turrets were mounted to Henschel's hull and used in action. The more common "production" turret, sometimes called the "Henschel" turret, was simplified with a flat face, no shot trap (created by the curved face of the initial-type turret), less-steeply sloped sides, and no bulge for the commander's cupola.
The track system used on the Tiger II chassis was a unique one, which used alternating "contact shoe" and "connector" links—the contact shoe link had a pair of transverse metal bars that contacted the ground, while the connector links had no contact with the ground.
The Tiger II was developed late in the war and made in relatively small numbers. Like all German tanks, it had a gasoline engine. However, this same engine powered the much lighter Panther and Tiger I tanks. The Tiger II was under-powered, like many other heavy tanks of World War II, and consumed a lot of fuel which was already in short supply.

PzKpfw VI Ausf. B Tiger II jeb sarunvalodā Konigstiger (Polijas karaliskais tīģeris) bija vācu smagais tanks no Otrā pasaules kara. Pirmie transportlīdzekļa prototipi tika izgatavoti 1943. gadā, un sērijveida ražošana turpinājās 1944.-1945. gadā, noslēdzoties ar 487 transportlīdzekļu ražošanu. Tiger II aprīkoja ar vienu Maybach HL 230 P30 dzinēju, kas attīstīja 700 ZS. Tas bija bruņots ar 1 88 mm PaK 43 L / 71 lielgabalu un 2 7,92 mm MG34 ložmetējiem.
PzKpfw VI Ausf. B Tiger II tika izveidots saistībā ar Alberta Špēra pasūtījumu 1943. gada janvārī Henschel un Porsche rūpnīcām izstrādāt jaunu smago tanku Vācijas bruņotajiem spēkiem. Pirmie prototipi bija gatavi līdz šī gada oktobrim, un masveida ražošanā nonāca kompānijas Henschel projektētais auto, kurā 50 jaunās tvertnes vienībām bija Porsche projektēts tornis (tā sauktais Porsche tornis). Karaliskajam tīģerim bija lielisks prettanku lielgabals, kas 1500-2000 m attālumā spēja iznīcināt jebkuru tā laika Sarkanās armijas vai sabiedroto bruņumašīnu, turklāt tas bija ļoti labi bruņots, un tā bruņas bija rūpīgi konturētas. Faktiski jaunais vācu tanks bija neaizsniedzams lielākajai daļai ienaidnieka transportlīdzekļu attālumos virs 1000-1200 m. Neapšaubāmi, Tiger II bija neskaitāmi trūkumi: pirmkārt, dzinējs noteikti bija pārāk vājš, kas bija tāds pats kā par 11 tonnām vieglākam. Tiger I. Bojāta arī ātrumkārba.un visa piedziņas sistēma, kas bija ārkārtīgi neveiksmīga un pakļauta kļūmei. Arī Tiger II bija neticami laikietilpīgs un dārgs ražošanai, kas, ņemot vērā Vācijas sarežģīto situāciju frontēs laika posmā no 1944. līdz 1945. gadam, arī bija liels mīnuss. Karaliskais tīģeris tika pakļauts ugunskristībām Normandijas operācijas laikā 1944. gada vasarā 503. smago tanku bataljona un 101. SS smago tanku bataljona sastāvā. Vēlāk ar šiem tankiem aprīkotas vienības karoja arī Austrumu frontē 1944.-1945.gadā, un, iespējams, lielākais skaits Tiger II tanku vienā operācijā tika izmantots ofensīvā Ardēnās 1944.-1945.gada mijā.
