    Description

    Just reduced 10%.  An original WWII German Panther tank track and the tanks introduction in the Battle of Kursk.
    The Panther tank was seen as a necessary component of
    Operation Citadel
    ,and the attack was delayed several times because of their mechanical problems and to receive more Panthers, with the eventual start date of the battle only six days after the last Panthers had been delivered to the front. This resulted in major problems in Panther units during the
    Battle of Kursk,
    as tactical training at the unit level, coordination by radio, and driver training were all seriously deficient.
    A broke down Panther was buried to hide them from the Russians.
    After Kursk, the problems were mostly fixed and it was considered one of the best tanks of World War II for its excellent firepower and protection, although its reliability was less impressive.
    The Panther was intended to counter the Soviet
    T-34
    and to replace the
    Panzer III and Panzer IV.
