Description

Combining the destructive firepower of the 88mm gun with the outstanding mobility of the "Panther" series, the "Jagdpanther" is quite probably the best-known tank destroyer of the Second World War. In the vehicle's first action on 30 July 1944, three "Jagdpanthers" managed to destroy eleven British tanks in a vicious two minute fire fight near the village of Les Loges in Normandy, cementing the "Jagdpanther's" reputation as a potent tank killer. In his fifth book in the "TankCraft" series, Dennis Oliver uses contemporary photographs and meticulously researched, superbly presented color and monochrome illustrations to tell the story of these heavy self-propelled antitank guns and the units which operated them in the German defense of the Western Front. As with all the books in the "TankCraft" series, a large part of this work showcases available model kits and after market products, complemented by a gallery of expertly constructed and painted models. Technical details as well as modifications introduced during production and in the field are also explained giving the modeler all the information and knowledge required.
