A detailed examination of a key World War II-era tank, featuring 70 photographs, fully annotated cutaway artworks, three- and four-view profile artworks, and tables. In the early years of World War II the German panzer divisions swept aside all Allied opposition, but when they invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, they encountered the Soviet T-34, which could deflect any German tank. Thus a new German tank was born: the Panther. Panther Tank follows the Panther's development and production, describing not only its technical details but also recalling its service at, among other battles, Kursk and in Normandy, told in the soldiers' own words. Specification tables provide manufacturing data, while comparative tables allow readers to see instantly how the Panther matched its rivals.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the early years of World War II the German panzer divisions swept aside all Allied opposition as they swarmed through Poland and France in the Blitzkrieg campaigns. However, during the German invasion of the Soviet Union in July 1941, the advancing German tanks met the Soviet T-34, which could deflect any German tank weapon. A new tank was required that could fight the T-34 on equal terms - thus the Panther was born. By the time of the German surrender in 1945, more than 5500 Panthers had been built. The Panther Tank follows the Panther's development and production, detailing not only its technical specifications but also its service at, among other battles, Kursk and in Normandy, in the words of the soldiers who fought in it. Specification tables provide manufacturing details, while comparative tables allow the reader to make at-a-glance assessments of how the Panther matched its rivals.Authoritatively written and featuring 70 photographs, fully annotated cutaway artworks, three- and four-view profile artworks and tables, Panther Tank tells the story of World War II's finest all-round tank and will have a strong appeal to anyone interested in twentieth century military history.
