Currently it is the (Chinese) Type 99KM, with a 155mm cannon. In the time of World War II, it was the Tiger Tank I, with an 88mm gun.

AnswerTwo tanks vie for the title of Most Powerful Tank. One is the M1 Abrams. The other is the Type 99KM. The type 99KM has a 2100 horsepower engine, and a max speed of 80 Km/H, whereas the M1 Abrams with a 1500 horsepower engine, with a max speed of 60 Km/H. Only 200 Types 99KMs have been made. Only one is just 1.9 million US dollars. The Type 99KM has a JD-4-active laser defence system, a unique feature, using it to dazzle gunners. The full weight of the Type 99KM is a hefty weight of 75 Tons, with precision missiles and the barrel can also fire kinetic-energy-armor-piercing shells.

What was the most feared armoured tank in World War 2?

When it was introduced, the Tiger was the most powerful tank in the world. The 88mm gun was extremely powerful and the heavy armor made it almost impervious to attack. Even though its fearsomeness was to grow to almost mythical proportions. The Tiger's two greatest strengths were its main gun and its heavy armor. The 88mm KwK 36 L/56 main gun was the most powerful anti-tank gun then in use by any army, capable of penetrating 112 mm of armor at 1400 meters. The Tiger I had the best quality armor of any German tank. The rolled homogeneous nickel-steel plate had the best homogeneous armor hardness level of any WW II tank, meaning it was stronger and less brittle. It was used in great thicknesses on the Tiger, resulting in great weight but extreme protection. The combination of this massive armor and powerful gun made for an almost unbeatable tank. Enemy crews often watched helplessly as their shots bounced off the Tiger and their own vehicles were quickly destroyed...often from great distances. The Tiger I was very maneuverable for its weight and size, and it was only 2km/h slower than the Panzer III and Panzer IV. The influence of the Tiger on Allied morale, known as Tigerphobia, was so powerful that British General Montgomery banned all reports mentioning it's prowess in battle. Perhaps the Tiger's greatest fame was gained in a single action in Normandy where the famous commander SS Obersturmführer Michael Wittman destroyed an entire column of 25 tanks, 14 half-tracks and 14 bren-gun carriers in a few short minutes with one Tiger.
