Beschreibung
The Panzerkampfwagen V Panther is considered a model for many post-war tanks. It embodied a perfect balance between firepower, armor protection, and mobility, which had no competition in its time. After certain issues with the first models, the tank transformed from a 'problem child' into one of the most valuable assets of the Panzerwaffe. Unique, previously unpublished photographs, overview tables, and especially the memories of eyewitnesses give this publication a sense of completeness. The book contains an analysis of the weapon system of this outstanding tank, highlights its strengths and weaknesses, evaluates situational reports from the wartime period, and offers informative comparisons with enemy tanks, such as the T-34, KV, M4 Sherman, and Cromwell. The author, Thomas Anderson, is an expert on German military history from 1933 to 1945. In writing his books, he does not rely solely on memories or published literature but primarily on facts drawn from archives.
