Jagdpanther Gameplay + Nuke: German Tank Destroyer | War Thunder

▼ The Jagdpanther, Panzerjaeger Panther () (. Index: . 173) is a rank IV German tank destroyer with a battle rating of 6.3 (AB) and 6.0 (RB/SB). It was introduced during the Closed Beta Test for Ground Forces before Update . Nazi Germany created the formidable 8.8 cm Pak43 anti-tank gun, a longer version of the 8.8 cm KwK36. 2 attempts were made to fit this gun onto a self-propelled configuration, the first was Panzerjäger Tiger (P) Ferdinand (later Elefant) and the second was the Nashorn. However, the Ferdinand was too heavy and unreliable while the Nashorn was too small and underpowered to propel such a gun. The Jagdpanther was proposed in late 1942, as a tank destroyer from the Panther chassis that could mount the formidable 8.8 cm Pak43 with good armour and speed. The tank destroyer was created and designated . 173 and was demonstrated to Hitler on October 1943. Production then started in January 1944 under the simpler name Jagdpanther by Hitler rather than using the longer 8.8 cm Pak43/3 auf Panzerjäger Panther. Throughout its production life of January 1944 to 1945, 415 total of these vehicles were made. MIAG produced 270 from January 1944 to the end of the war, MNH produced 112 from November 1944, and MBA produced 37 from December 1944. The supposed goal was 150 Jagdpanther produced a month, but Germany's deteriorating situation made this impossible. The Jagdpanthers were made in two variants, G1 and G2. The G1 had a modified Panther Ausf. A engine deck while the G2 had a modified Panther Ausf. G engine deck. Several changes were implemented throughout its production and as such some features were exclusively present on G1's. Examples include a smaller, and internally bolted gun mantlet/mounting, a monoblock 8.8 cm PaK 43/3 and a three piece exhaust system. A proposal to mount the 12.8 cm Pak80 was mentioned but never came around to production. The Jagdpanther was a rather good design as a tank destroyer, it had a good power-to-weight ratio and had a gun that could destroy any Allied tank in service in the war. It did not suffer as much reliability problems due to being based on the later model Panther Ausf. G, which had most of the initial problems fixed. It also used an improved transmission and final drive (the two sources of most Panther issues) that was planned for the Panther II. ▼ Jagdpanther Gameplay + Nuke: German Tank Destroyer | War Thunder ▼ 00:00 - 06:45 - First Battle (Nuke) 06:46 - 07:23 - Fail 07:24 - 13:39 - Second Battle 13:40 - 14:46 - Fail ▼ : If you enjoyed the video please leave a Like or Comment :) : No aim - no skill - just fun! ;) No Commentary Gaming : TIKTOK - @justgameplayyt?lang=en : TWITTER - : REDDIT - : INSTAGRAM - #warthunder #warthundertanks #warthundergameplay #warthundermoments #warthundertank #warthunderaviation
