Forces of Valor 80082 1:32 GERMAN PANTHER AUSF. G Germany

Panther was the common name of a medium tank fielded by Nazi Germany in WW II that served from mid-1943 to the end of the European war in 1945. It was intended as a counter to the T-34, and to replace the Panzer III and Panzer IV; while never replacing the latter, it served alongside it as well as the heavier Tiger tanks until the end of the war. The Panther's excellent combination of firepower, mobility, and protection served as a benchmark for other nations' late war and immediate post-war tank designs, and it was frequently regarded as one of the best tank designs of WW II.
