DRAGON 6945 Sd.Kfz.171 "PANTHER" Ausf. D w' ZIMMERIT ('39-'45 SERIES) 1/35 SCALE
DESCRIPTION:
The Panther tank, officially Panzerkampfwagen V Panther (abbreviated PzKpfw V) with ordnance inventory designation: Sd.Kfz. 171, is a German medium tank of World War II. It was used on the Eastern and Western Fronts from mid-1943 to the end of the war in May 1945.
On 27 February 1944 it was re-designated to just PzKpfw Panther, as Hitler ordered that the Roman numeral "V" be deleted.[citation needed] In contemporary English-language reports it is sometimes referred to as the "Mark V".
FEATURES:
The key feature of this 1/35 scale Panther Ausf. D plastic kit from Dragon is the inclusion of two possibilities – modelers can build a Panther either with or without a coating of Zimmerit. Thus, in the kit box there are two sets of parts for the turret, mantlet, upper hull, glacis, rear plate and stowage boxes to allow either version to be assembled. The Zimmerit coating is a masterpiece of sculpting and molding, and it equals the delicacy of a master-modeler’s handiwork. This kit also features one-piece DS tracks with hollow guide horns. For both types, there are a number of photo-etched metal parts (e.g. engine deck grills) to help modelers accurately depict the fine components on this famous German tank. Thanks to the versatility of this 2-in-1 set, modelers have the liberty of buying the kit now and then deciding at their own leisure which type to build!
