History

The Jagdpanzer V, later known as the Jagdpanther (Sd.Kfz. 173), was a German tank destroyer developed during World War II. It was based on the Panther chassis and equipped with the powerful 8.8 cm Pak 43 L/71 gun. Introduced in 1944, it was designed to provide heavily armored and highly effective anti-tank capabilities.

The origins of the Jagdpanther date back to 1939, when Krupp was commissioned to design an armored self-propelled gun mounting an 8.8 cm Flak L/56. After multiple iterations, the project evolved and in 1942, the German Army decided to incorporate Panther components. The design process continued with Daimler-Benz and later MIAG in 1943, which took over production responsibility.

The first serial production Jagdpanthers were delivered in January 1944 by MIAG, followed by additional production lines at MNH (Hannover) and MBA (Potsdam). A total of 413 units were built before the war ended. (268 by MIAG | 112 by MNH | 33 by MBA)

The Jagdpanther was classified by the Allies as a ?Heavy Tank Killer¡°, proving highly effective on the battlefield. However, insufficient numbers limited its impact. It was first deployed in mid-1944 and played a key role in battles such as the Ardennes Offensive (December 1944), where it destroyed numerous Allied tanks
