Aber 25011 Side skirts for Panther G/Jagdpanther (1/25)

Aber 25011 Side skirts for Panther G/Jagdpanther in 1:25 scale is a high-quality set of photo-etched side skirts designed for the most demanding modelers seeking an accurate reproduction of German tanks from World War II. The product is intended for Panther Ausf. G and Jagdpanther models in the popular 1/25 scale. The offered side skirts are made from thin brass sheet, precisely photo-etched, which allows for exceptional detailing and faithful recreation of bolts, mounts, and the shape of the armored plates.

Purpose and vehicle history: The included side skirts, known as Schürzen, were used on German medium tanks Panther G as well as Jagdpanther tank destroyers produced in 1944–1945, i.e., in the final phase of World War II. These skirts were intended to protect the tank from shaped-charge ammunition and anti-tank grenades, especially during urban combat and against infantry equipped with handheld anti-tank launchers. The use of Schürzen was characteristic of the late war period and battles fought by the Wehrmacht on both the Eastern and Western fronts.
