The text is limited to the captions and a large table with technical data. The visual material offers first of all - besides a few selected historical photos - dozens of technical drawings of various sub-variants of the "Panther" Ausf. D from 1942 to 1944, including prototypes and special designs ("Panther" with turret-mounted hoist, tank command vehicle with additional antennas, etc.).Precise multi-sided views of the vehicle (side, front, rear, top) are supplemented by exact detail drawings of particularly interesting assemblies and individual parts.
And best of all - all this in 1:35 scale (the details in 1:17.5). In addition, there are dozens of colour drawings (profiles, etc.) of several "Panthers" in different camouflage paints - from tank grey to sand yellow to various spotted camouflage patterns, and finally the radio control panels in colour! Conclusion: Of all the pictorial source books on the Panther D, this one is probably the most consistently tailored to the needs of the modeller.
