Dragon 1/35 Panther G w/Additional Turret Roof Armor (Premium Edition) # 6913

The Panther G with Additional Turret Roof Armor was a variant of the German Panther tank deployed during World War II.

Recognized for its formidable combination of firepower, mobility, and armor protection, the Panther tank was a key component of the German armored forces.

The Panther G variant featured additional armor plates welded onto the roof of the turret to provide enhanced protection against aerial attacks, particularly from strafing aircraft and artillery shell fragments.

This modification aimed to address vulnerabilities exposed during combat, where the original design's turret roof proved susceptible to penetration.

Despite these improvements, the additional armor added weight and complexity to the vehicle, potentially impacting its speed and maneuverability.

Nevertheless, the Panther G with Additional Turret Roof Armor remained a potent adversary on the battlefield, representing the German Army's ongoing efforts to adapt and improve its armored assets in the face of evolving Allied tactics and technology.
