I was told that if you fitted brakes to a Tiger, you had to move the main undercarriage forward slightly to reduce the tendency to nose over under braking. This made the landing process much more difficult, more like an Auster which tends to emulate a kangaroo unless you put all three wheels down together, fully stalled.
