In late 1944 and 1945 the Panther tank played an important role in
Germany's desperate efforts to stem the Allied advance on the
Western Front. The Panther, perhaps the best armoured vehicle
produced by Germany during the Second World War, was a key element
in the Wehrmacht's defensive tactics, in rearguard actions and
counter-attacks, and it took a prominent part in the last German
offensive of the war, in the Ardennes during the Battle of the
Bulge. So it is an ideal subject for Dennis Oliver's latest volume
in the TankCraft series. He uses archive photos and extensively
researched colour illustrations to examine the Panther tanks and
units of the German army and Waffen-SS panzer battalions that
struggled to resist the Allied onslaught. A key section of his book
displays available model kits and aftermarket products,
complemented by a gallery of beautifully constructed and painted
models in various scales. Technical details as well as
modifications introduced during production and in the field are
also examined providing everything the modeller needs to recreate
an accurate representation of these historic tanks.
