Panzer: Tiger and Panther Tanks on the Eastern Front in World War II (World War 2 Book 1)

The tank is one of the most devastating and adaptable weapons on the battlefield. Since their initial conception in the early 1900s and first use by the French and British during World War One, the tank has been a constant and powerful symbol of modern warfare. During World War Two Allied and Axis tanks saw intense and devastating action. Panzer using German tank crew accounts puts you in the commander’s seat in some deadly tank encounters on the Eastern Front.

The Tiger has been called an outstanding design for its time, it was over-engineered, using expensive materials and labour-intensive production methods. The Panther was intended to counter the Soviet T-34 as well as replace the outdated Panzer III and Panzer IV. It is considered one of the best tanks of World War II for its excellent fire power and protection. Both tanks though suffered from unreliability and the Red Army had a numerical advantage along with new tank designs which would help to turn the tide of World War 2.
