Pz. Kpfw. V (Sd. Kfz 171) "Panther" - German heavy tank, considered one of the best tanks of World War II. In 1931, General Major Oswald Lutz presented a project for the formation of large armored units, capable of operating independently on the battlefield. Influenced by this project, Lieutenant Colonel Heinz Guderian ordered the construction of a suitable light tank. The first 15 tanks were completed at the end of April 1934. In 1935 the tank designation was changed from 1A Las "Krupp" to Panzerkampfwagen IA. In September 1936, 41 Pz. Kpfw. I Ausf A. tanks were sent to Spain to arm the Legion „Condor". Pz. Kpfw. IA tanks formed the basis of the armament of armored units in time of the attack on Poland in September 1939. They were used in limited quantities on the Eastern Front, in the Balkans and in North Africa. Only 477 Pz. Kpfw. I Ausf. A. tanks were produced.
Quite a complex, well-designed and well-detailed model with full internal equipment for medium-experienced and experienced modelers. The color reserve is large, the graphic instructions are excellent, the textual is large and perfectly explains the entire process of gluing the model. Where necessary, double-sided printing is used. The model recreates the appearance of the machine that fought in North Africa.
