History
The Jagdpanther (Sd.Kfz. 173) was developed to provide the German Army with a more effective and mobile tank destroyer. Introduced in 1944, it featured the potent 88mm Pak 43 gun—also used in the Tiger II—and was based on the reliable Panther chassis. The G2 variant, a late-war development, introduced refinements in the hull rear, cooling systems, and internal layout. Known for its powerful armament, strong frontal armour and high kill-to-loss ratio, the Jagdpanther was feared on both the Eastern and Western Fronts. However, production numbers were limited, and many saw action too late to significantly alter Germany’s declining war position. Today, it stands as a symbol of late-war German engineering, prized by historians and scale modellers alike.
