To combat this new threat one of the prototype Pershings was upgunned with a more powerful 90mm cannon & rushed to France for field testing. Once there armour salvaged from a destroyed Panther tank was added, which brought it on par with the Kingtiger. The crew then went looking for prey but they only knocked out one Tiger tank before the war ended.
