Reviews

The German Panther G had a crew of five and possessed sloping armor that was 80mm thick on the hull front, and 100mm thick on the turret front. When combined with a lethal 7.5cm Kw.K.42 L/70 main gun, and two 7.92mm MG34 machine guns (one coaxial with the main gun, and one in a ball mount in the right bow).

Intensive research was conducted on surviving tanks to ensure every detail on the 1/35 scale kit is rendered as accurately as possible. Furthermore, all the technical drawings and production engineering were carried out by Dragon’s vastly experienced design team.
