During its 22 months of service beginning in July 1943, Germany's Panther tank proved more than a formidable opponent for superior numbers of Allied tanks and ground-attack aircraft amassed on both the Eastern and Western Fronts. Illustrated with archival photographs, color paintings, and diagrams, this history of the highly mobile and well-armed Panther spans the period from its conception through its production run of 5,500 by war's end.
