This kit perfectly meets the expectations of both advanced modelers and more experienced hobbyists who wish to achieve a level of realism for their plastic tanks that is impossible to obtain with factory parts alone.

Historical Information

The Panther Ausf.F and Panther II tanks were German projects from the final phase of World War II (1939-1945). The Panther F was intended to introduce the new Schmalturm turret and significantly improved crew protection and optics. The Panther II was a highly classified development project designed to significantly increase the armor compared to previous versions. Due to the course of the war, neither vehicle entered mass production, and the few completed examples served only as prototypes or in limited front-line trials.
