Historical Data and Service

The Jagdpanther SdKfz.173 was a German tank destroyer that entered service in 1944 as a response to the increasing threat from Allied tanks. The chassis of the legendary Panzer V Panther was combined with the powerful 8.8 cm Pak 43/3 L/71 anti-tank gun, giving it significant firepower superiority. The G1 Late Production model reflects vehicles produced at the end of the war, characterized by simplified construction and specific details such as late-type hulls or mufflers. Jagdpanthers were used, among others, during the fighting in Normandy and on the Eastern Front in 1944-1945.
