The JagdPanther was a large and extremely potent tank hunter, based on earlier designs which used PzKpw III
and IV series chassis, but using the heavier Panther chassis and mounting an 88mm L/71 gun (similar to that
used in the King Tiger heavy tank). The armor was reasonably thick, and steeply sloped, and an advanced
Nahverteidigungswaffe close-defense weapon was built-in. 392 JagdPanther were produced between early 1944
and the end of the war.
