Widely regarded as one of the finest German tank designs of World War II, the Panther's story began with the Ausf.D variant. Rushed into service for the pivotal Battle of Kursk in July 1943, the Panther made an immediate impact with its excellent combination of a powerful long-barrelled 7.5cm gun, thick, well-sloped armour, and good mobility. It was a formidable opponent for any Allied tank on the battlefield.

This 1/48 scale kit from Tamiya is a detailed replica of the Panther Ausf.D. A key feature of this series, the kit includes a die-cast metal chassis which provides realistic weight and a solid foundation for the model. It also features user-friendly assembly-type tracks with one-piece straight sections for easy construction, realistic cast textures on the gun mantlet, a commander torso figure, and two marking options for vehicles that fought at the Battle of Kursk.
