History of the Original

The Panzer 38(t) was a lightly armored tank of Czechoslovakian production, which, following the annexation of Czechoslovakia by Nazi Germany, became part of the Wehrmacht's equipment. The Ausf.E and Ausf.F versions, produced in 1940–1941, featured reinforced armor and served as solid support for German armored divisions during the campaigns in the Balkans, Poland, France, and on the Eastern Front. This tank was used mainly until 1942, after which many units were converted into self-propelled anti-tank guns.
