MAN Sd.Kfz.171 Panther
Designed to replace to
the PzKpfw IV, which had met its match in the new Soviet T-34, the
Panzerkampfwagen V "Panther" series of heavy tanks were armed with
powerful weapons and equally powerful armor protection. Thought by many
to be the best German tank of WWII, the Panther featured a sloped
armored turret with a long barrel 75mm main gun and an anti-aircraft
7.92mm machine gun. It was equipped with anti-magnetic paste to combat
magnetic mines, and armor skirts offered further protection for the
track system and crew. Approximately 5,500 Panthers were built during
WWII.
