The VK 100.01 (P) "Mammut" was a design by Ferdinand Porsche for a super-heavy tank for the German Wehrmacht. The project originated in the early 1940s as part of considerations for the development of particularly heavily armored breakthrough vehicles. The plan envisioned a vehicle weighing around 100 tons, with very strong armor and heavy armament. Porsche's design competed with similar developments from other manufacturers and is considered one of the forerunners of later super-heavy tank projects. However, the VK 100.01 (P) never progressed beyond the planning stage, and no prototype was built. Some of its concepts were incorporated into later developments, particularly the Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus super-heavy tank project.
