Combined with sloped frontal armor plate and a powerful 88mm gun, the Jagdpanther was
regarded as one of the best tank destroyers in WW II. Tamiya replicates a vehicle featuring large
size gun mantlet, muffler with flash suppressor and striped camouflage pattern on dark green
base.
The Jagdpanther featured a powerful 88mm gun mounted in a superstructure featuring 80mm
armor at the front and 50mm at the sides. The front and side armor plates were sloped to further
improve their protective power, giving the Jagdpanther its imposing, wedge-shaped appearance.
Weighing in at 46 tons and propelled by the powerful Maybach V12 cylinder engine, this tank
destroyer featured a good balance of fire power, protection and mobility.
