[The power of the tank killer is apparent]
- During World War II, Germany produced numerous tank destroyers based on tanks and equipped with powerful main guns in fighting compartments integrated into the hull, but the best of these was the Jagdpanther.
- Based on the Panther tank, it is equipped with a powerful 88mm gun in a fighting compartment made of sharply sloping armor plates.
- With its excellent mobility and defensive capabilities, it became a formidable opponent for Allied tanks.
- Production began in January 1944, and the tank saw combat for the first time in the Battle of Normandy.
- Later models had various improvements, such as a larger mantlet collar, and fought until the end of the war.
