Detailed 1/72 scale assembly model kit of the Sd.Kfz.171, a World War II German tank commonly known as the Panther. The Panther was first introduced into the "Battle of Kursk" in mid 1943 to counter the highly acclaimed Soviet T-34 tank. Like the Soviet T-34, the Panther featured sloped-armor, and unlike heavier Tiger tanks, the Panther was faster and more maneuverable. Armed with the Rheinmetall-Borsig 75 mm main gun, the Panther was capable of knocking out any tank fielded by the Allies in the Second World War. This Hasegawa 1/72 scale assembly kit accurately reproduces the Ausf. G production model of the Panther tank, the most successful and widely produced variant of the Panther tank. Model kit features: Turret can be rotated and main gun can be elevated. Separate road wheels. Suspension arms are molded as part of chassis. 1 piece tracks. 2 standing figures included. 64 parts.
