German "Panther" tank repair vehicle G type (late type)
The "Black Panther" was a medium tank developed by Nazi Germany during World War II and was used from mid- 1943 until the end of the European War in 1945 . "Black Panther" has excellent firepower, mobility and good protection performance, and was also used as a standard for new tanks by other countries in the later period of the war and after the war. The "Black Panther" tank is considered to be one of the best designed tanks during World War II. one.
The engine of the "Black Panther" is the same as that of the "King Tiger", with strong frontal armor, excellent firepower, and proper weight, making it better on road and off-road than the "Tiger" tank. The "Black Panther" has relatively weak side protection and can withstand long-range shots from Allied tanks, but will be penetrated at close range. In addition, the firepower of the 75mm artillery is slightly smaller than that of the "Tiger" 88mm artillery, and the corresponding strike power of high-explosive shells against infantry is also weakened, but it is still quite effective.
The cost of the "Black Panther" is cheaper than that of the "Tiger", and only slightly more expensive than the Type 4 tank. Since it and the "Tiger" were designed and completed at almost the same time, the Armament Bureau and the Wartime Production Department started production at full capacity to meet the needs of the war. need. For the design of the "Black Panther", the armor and transmission system have been simplified accordingly to improve production efficiency and material shortage, while the engine and suspension system are still very complex. The end result was that the Panther tank produced far more than the Tiger tank, and only less than the Type IV. However, due to the simplified transmission structure, the "Black Panther" failed frequently until the end of the war.
