No, it wont be replaced.
Powered turret traverse was provided by the variable speed Boehringer-Sturm L4S hydraulic motor, which was driven from the main engine by a secondary drive shaft. A high and a low speed setting was available to the gunner via a lever on his right.[19] The turret could be rotated 360 degrees in 60 seconds in low gear independent of engine rpm, in 19 seconds in high gear at idle engine speed, and within 10 seconds at the maximum allowable engine speed. The direction and speed of traverse were controlled by the gunner through pedals, or a control lever near his left arm.[19] The system was smooth and accurate enough to be used for final gun laying without the gunner needing to use his traverse hand wheel for fine adjustments — which was needed by most other tanks of the period. If power was lost, the turret could be slowly traversed by hand, assisted by the loader who had an additional wheel.[19][20]
Tiger I looks far cooler and scares the russians far more, as it looks more "german".
Tiger II had a hydraulically powered turret, which means it will have a much faster turn rate than the Tiger 1's turret.QuotePowered turret traverse was provided by the variable speed Boehringer-Sturm L4S hydraulic motor, which was driven from the main engine by a secondary drive shaft.

Wooow!! GREAT find! LOL 180° in 5 sec. (at max) ? That speed would kill a soldier just by hitting him (with front of barrel).
