However larger rounds will still be able to penetrate the side skirts with ease, even chemical shells. This feature makes the E-100 able to defeat lesser rounds from low calibre guns. On the E-100, the side skirts are completely separated from the main hull and are 75 mm thick sloping, which adds up with the 120 mm flat side hull plate. On the Maus, the huge flat side skirts make up part of the side hull armour. The side armour on the E-100 is also slightly more effective than the Maus. The overall design of the tank makes it very resilient against bombs and artillery, to the point of surviving to bombs falling beneath it. The E-100 presents a more sloped frontal armour that is more effective than the Maus', the downside in the design is the lower front plate that is thinner, not to mention that it is a big target. Also, the side armour that is curved makes this Super Heavy tank a rare one. The big difference in design though is that the E-100 has a turret at the centre of the tank hull, making it unable to really cover the engines. The two super-heavy tanks also share the same turret design with the 128 mm primary armament along with a coaxial 75 mm and machine gun. The two share the same default camouflage scheme of the yellow Dunkelgelb and green olivgrün paint. The E-100 looks like a more sleek version of the Maus, or perhaps a more practical one. It was made available again in War Thunder's 5th Anniversary tournaments, then again in the War Thunder's 6th Birthday tournaments. It was first available in the " Teutonic Giants" tournament held from a time span of January to March 2016. The E-100 could only be obtained in the special tournament events, making its acquirement rare to the point of being one of the rarest tanks in the game.
