Tamiya 1:35 - German Panther Type G Tank Steel Wheel
Sold Out
The German Panther tank was produced from 1943 until the end of WWII and deployed on the Eastern and Western Fronts in Europe. The tank was developed as a replacement for the Panzer III and Panzer IV tanks and was intended to counter the Soviet T-34. The Panther had a powerful 700hp Maybach engine and a turret placed far back on the hull mounting a 75mm L/70 cannon. The Panther's excellent firepower and protection made it one of the best tanks of World War II. The Panther was easier to produce and maintain than the Tiger I, but it is often considered to be as effective as the latter. The Ausf.G included versions with heater unit installed over the left engine fan, and with lower lip piece added to the mantlet to eliminate shot trap.
