Description

This is a plastic military vehicle model.

While it's the impressive Tiger I tank that usually attracts the most attention, it was the Panther that in the long run was a more important tank to Germany during WWII. This approximately 45-ton medium tank represented a good balance of well-sloped armor protection, lethal firepower, and able cross-country mobility, the design inspired by the highly successful Russian T-34. Beginning in December 1942, a total of 842 Ausf.D were manufactured through to September 1943, at which time it was superceded by the improved Ausf.A. Its combat debut occurred during Operation Zitadelle in the titanic Battle of Kursk on the Eastern Front. Its 7.5cm KwK 42 L/70 cannon took a heavy toll on enemy armored vehicles whenever and wherever they were encountered. The Ausf.D is easily identified by the letterbox hatch opening for the glacis machine gun, pistol ports on the turret sides, and a drum cupola.

This vehicle comes mounted on a black plastic base with a clear plastic cover to keep it free of dust and fingerprints.
