History and use of the original

The Raketenjagdpanzer Jaguar 1 was introduced into service with the Bundeswehr in the 1970s as a specialist anti-tank vehicle. It was based on the proven Marder IFV chassis, and its main advantage was the launcher for HOT guided anti-tank missiles, enabling it to destroy enemy tanks at distances of several kilometers. The Jaguar 1 played a key role in NATO's defensive strategy during the height of the Cold War tensions and remains to this day a symbol of innovative armored solutions of the Bundeswehr.
