Umbrella of Tiger I
A Tiger 131 photo from my friend.
The Tiger 131 of the Tank Museum in Bovington, an umbrella was installed on the cupola in around the end of December 2021. I heard that two poles are inserted into the short tubes at the edge of the cupola's hatch. In November 1942, an umbrella equipment Regenschirm was introduced on the Tiger I cupola. You can check a reference information. Some wartime photos can be found in some books and on the web.
