Description
The Panther G was the last version of the medium battle tank still produced in large numbers for the Wehrmacht. Development of the Panther began in 1942 to provide the Wehrmacht with a mobile and powerful main battle tank, as the Panzer III and Panzer IV models were increasingly falling behind with the advent of the T-34/85. The Panther's advantages were its high-powered 7.5cm KwK 42 L/70 gun, which allowed a very high rate of fire, and its technically excellent undercarriage, which is considered the forerunner of modern main battle tanks.
The Panther G kit is buildable in three different versions:
- RC model with BB function
- RC model with IR function
- display model
The important parts of this kit are made of metal. The lower hull with torsion bar suspension, metal single link tracks, drive and idler wheels, road wheels, turret, gun barrel are made of metal as well as several hatches, small parts and the gearbox!
The kit comes without electronic parts, so if you want to build the RC version you need the receiver unit, transmitter, smoke unit and a speaker.
