Create a masterpiece tank model with this premium kit.
About the Actual Vehicle
- The Panther is known as a well-balanced masterpiece among the German tanks of World War II.
- Its sloped armor design and main gun were influenced by the Soviet T-34, which the German forces encountered.
- It featured a 70-caliber, 7.5cm gun and was powered by a Maybach HL230 V12 gasoline engine, reaching a top speed of 55 km/h.
- Initially facing numerous issues upon deployment, its reliability eventually improved, establishing it as a formidable main battle tank in the latter part of the war.
- Production of the G-type began in March 1944 and became the final production model of the Panther. By production's end in May 1945, nearly 3,000 units had been manufactured, playing a significant role until the war's conclusion.
