German armour

The Pz Kpfw Panther was the first true main battle tank of the German army. The combination of a powerful tank gun, well-sloped armour and good mobility made the Panther one of Germany's most succesful late-war tanks. It was, however, more unreliable than the Pz Kpfw IV, a problem which was not fully fixed before the war ended.

The Panther fought on every front from 1943 until the end of the war. After the war, France used post-war build Panthers to arm one of their armoured regiments.https://tanksinworldwar2.com/germany-pzkpfw-panther.php
