Dragon 7647 1:72 Sd.Kfz.171 Panther Ausf.F

The famous German Panther tank of WWII saw many modifications in its relatively brief lifetime, and its final evolution was the Ausf. F. In terms of design, the variant featured a new Schmalturm ("narrow") turret – a turret that had increased armor protection, a narrower frontal profile, a stereoscopic rangefinder, and provision for infrared sight equipment. The turret mounted a 75mm KwK44/1 L/70 gun and a coaxial MG42.


Although Germany’s defeat in WWII prevented the Panther F from going into production, Dragon allows modelers to recreate what never was! This is an accurate rendition of a late-war German AFV design. As the Ausf. F was to be based exclusively on a chassis with steel-rimmed road wheels, this aspect is reflected in the kit. The turret has been completely retooled with the correct shape and profile. Using typically advanced molding technology, this is a unique kit of a novel tank. Extra convenience comes in the form of one-piece DS tracks too. Although it came too late to help Germany in WWII, this kit will be a lethal weapon in the hands of modelers!
