Fun fact is that basically every country with major armored forces had designs of some unpractical monstrosities, including USSR, and most build at least some prototypes, but it’s a more wehraboo thing, you don’t ever seem them drooling over TOG 2 or even T28, yet the drool over everything with iron cross on it. Also that’s how you always check someone who had no even theoretical knowledge about warfare - even much smaller Maus was completely unusable because of its mass (188 tons for Maus and Ratte would wigh at least 1000 tons).
Not even Hitler really wanted to build that thing.
Yeah, though it was not even this impressive (except the quadruple tracks, that looked cool) with its mass merely 60 tons, which is less than for example Abrams which later versions weight 70+ tons (Abrams is actually the heaviest mass produced tank used in actual combat). Most modern MBT’s tend to weight 60-70 tons.
