Among the German tanks that appeared during World War II, the Panther is acclaimed as a masterpiece with an excellent balance of mobility, firepower, and protection. The design deviates from previous German tanks and is said to have been influenced by the Soviet T-34, which challenged the invading German forces. The body features sloped armor and is equipped with a 7.5 cm gun with a 70-caliber length, powered by a Maybach HL230 V-type 12-cylinder gasoline engine. Among the various types produced, the G type, whose production began in March 1944, became the final production model of the Panther tank. As the war continued and the German Air Force lost air superiority, ground tank units were increasingly vulnerable to Allied aircraft attacks, leading to additional anti-aircraft armor on the turret upper surfaces and engine room.

This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit that models a modified type of the German Panther G tank with additional anti-aircraft armor from World War II. The sloped armor's body design, turret, and surrounding body parts are vividly recreated. The anti-aircraft armor plates that enhance the completion image are provided as photo-etched parts. The turret roof armor consists of a two-layer structure with two armor plates, and even the hexagonal head section of the attachment bolts are modeled. Also included is a bulletproof board set to guard the engine deck, depicting the suffering caused by the 'Jabos.' Furthermore, this kit provides bonus parts including an aluminum barrel and a 3D printed muzzle brake. The cylindrical storage case, complete with interior detail, is also recreated using 3D printing. In addition, the night vision devices equipped for the body and turret, available in three types for the commander, gunner, and driver, fully capture the atmosphere of the late-war German tanks, enhancing the overall modeling experience.

- This luxurious kit enhances the joy of assembly with its comprehensive content.
