After Germany's defeat in the First World War and the restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles, the development of the German armoured weapon was kept secret. The inspiration for the development of the legendary German armoured vehicles came from British vehicles such as the Garden Lloyd Carrier. Within just six years, the mighty Tiger heavy tank and the Panther main battle tank were created. This monograph provides an in-depth analysis of the Panzerskampfwagen I and its role in shaping the future of German armoured warfare. The work covers the development of the A and B variants as well as the new C and F concept variants and the small command tanks, offering a detailed exploration of these ground-breaking designs. The book also includes previously published articles from the now defunct "Grand Power Magazine" (December 2019 and February 2020), which have been supplemented with new photos.
