Dragon 1/72 Military - 1/72 Befehls Panther Ausf G - D7698

The Befehlspanzer, or command tank, variant of the Panther Ausf. G was fitted with additional radio equipment beyond the standard FuG 5 transceiver, typically an extra FuG 8 medium-range radio, to allow unit and company commanders to coordinate their tanks in the field. This extra equipment meant a reduction in the main gun's ammunition stowage to make room for the radios and operator.

Externally, Befehlspanther can usually be distinguished by their additional aerial mounts on the rear engine deck and turret roof - essential recognition detail for modellers building an accurate command vehicle rather than a standard gun tank.

Dragon's 1/72 kit reproduces the late-production Panther G hull and turret with the fine surface detail and crisp moulding the range is known for, plus the specific command-tank aerial fittings, and includes decals for authentic unit markings.

Ideal for modellers wanting to add a command variant to a Panther platoon or company diorama, distinguishing the unit commander's vehicle from the rest of the formation.
