Ferdinand was a horrible piece of shit that suffered horrendous losses in its first deployment.
MG was added and the surviving examples were withdraw to rocky Italy where their long range guns dominated obvious choke points - valleys among rocky hills impassable for most tanks.
If it wasn’t a colossal waste, you ought to explain why Germans absolutely hated it and had ti cancelled.
At first sight impressive 20cm front armour was actually 10 + 10 bolted on, and the unsloped thick plate spalled and cracked under large calibre Soviet HE shells, killing/maiming crew on the insite without penetration.
Nashorn carried a same gun, was far cheaper, simplet, more reliable and better situational awareness - the last being the deciding factor in armoured combat in WW2 as proven by US post war studies
