In July 1943 the German army launched what was to be its last major
offensive on Soviet soil. Codenamed Operation Citadel, the attack
had initially been scheduled to commence in May but was postponed
by Hitler on a number of occasions to allow the divisions in the
East to be reinforced and to ensure that the new Panther tanks
could be deployed. In the fifth book on the Panther in this series
Dennis Oliver examines the first vehicles that left the assembly
plants to go into service against the Red Army as part of Operation
Citadel and the units that arrived in the late summer and early
autumn of 1943. In addition to archive photographs and
painstakingly researched, exquisitely presented colour
illustrations, a large part of this book showcases 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 the
Panther tanks that fought in the East in 1943.
