He was known for his megalomane ambitions, but the most outstanding example of his unbounded grief was the adoption of the building of the tank Landcreuzer P.1,000, whom he called Rat (Ratte).
It should be more than five times heavier than its predecessor, Panzer V III Maus, a super tank built in late 1944. About 1,000 tonnes of metrics was the projected 35m long, 11m high and 14m wide to be the largest land war machine ever created.
Its name, Landcreuser (meaning ground warship), meant a certain mixture of sea ships arranged for land use. He aimed at using two 2 Navajo weapons of 280m BC C / 28. Its engine would have to be a double MAN V12Z32/44 engine with a 24 sea diesel cylinder of 12,600 kU, or eight Daimler-Benz MB 501 naval diesel engines with a 20-year cylinder of 1,500k (22,000 horses) each (as used in E-anije) to reach 12,000 kblM (16,000 hp) needed to move this reservoir.
The engines were to be equipped with snoblings, as well as those used by German submarines.
Although the first protype was ever able to build, he was never able to engage in battle because by the end of 1944, German had surrendered to allied powers.
