Product Description

The car body with its reproduced coating enhances the impact of the finished product.

[About the actual car]
The Panther tank is known as the most well-balanced and outstanding tank among the German tanks that appeared in World War II.
The vehicle features a hull design with sloped armor and a 70-caliber 7.5cm main gun.
It was equipped with the same Maybach HL230V 12-cylinder gasoline engine as the Tiger tank, giving it a maximum mobility of 55 km/h.
Although it was plagued by various problems immediately after it was first deployed, its reliability gradually improved and it proved its worth as a main battle tank in the latter half of the war.
The G-type was essentially the final production model of the Panther tank, with production beginning in March 1944.
Nearly 3,000 vehicles were produced until production ended in May 1945, and they remained in service until the end of the war.
On the other hand, towards the end of the war, many German tanks began to have coatings applied to their bodies to ward off magnetic mines.
The surface of the vehicle was coated with a non-magnetic material.
It was officially adopted in 1943, and vehicles were even shipped with the coating applied at the factory.

- The body of the vehicle is realistically reproduced, featuring a sloped armor design, and the unique pattern of Zimmerit coating is sculpted on the front, rear, and sides.
