Overview of the Panther Ausf.G

The Panther Ausf.G entered service during World War II as a counter to the T-34 and was built from 1943 onwards, operating alongside Panzer III, Panzer IV and Tiger tanks. Its sloped frontal armour, a Maybach engine producing roughly 700hp and the 75mm L/70 gun combined to deliver effective battlefield performance.
