This time I'm building the Meng 1/35 Sd.Kfz 171 Panther G with Air Defence Armor
I will be constructing and modifying this scale model, adding extra detail into what is already an excellently detailed kit.
This tank is a great addition to any collection and is sure to impress
Hopefully viewers will pick up some Tips and Tricks along the way and will get the chance to review the kit before buying.
The Panther was Germany's answer to the Russian T34
It was an excellent design, but like with most of Germany's 'super tanks' it was over complicated, time consuming and expensive to build.
It could never be produced in the numbers needed to stem the tide of advancing Russian forces.
Issues with reliability, although addressed, could not be fully fixed within its production cycle.
The Ausf G was the last version of this German tank to be produced with production starting in March 1944.
Approximately 2961 were produced up to the factories being captured in 1945 at the end of WW II.
Enjoy the video and please comment and I will try to respond in good time.
Thanks for watching.
