Academy 1/35 Sdkfz.173 Jagdpanther Ausf.G1: Kit Introduction

The Academy 13539 1/35 German Sdkfz.173 Jagdpanther Ausf.G1 reproduces the distinct profile and main features of the wartime tank destroyer, making it a practical project for enthusiasts interested in faithful historical models. The kit delivers parts shaped for a convincing miniature.

Combat Role and Model Fidelity

Deployed from 1944, the Jagdpanther combined a high-velocity 88mm gun with sloped frontal armour to counter Allied tanks effectively. The model reflects these hallmarks, allowing modellers to study and recreate the vehicle's combat-ready appearance.

Construction Notes and Presentation

Careful build technique and accurate finishing will make the Jagdpanther Ausf.G1 stand out; attention to surface texture and weathering will bring the scale representation closer to the original. It forms a credible centrepiece for World War II armour displays.
