Voyager Model FE48016 WWII German Panther A/D Schurzen for Tamiya 32597 1/48 – Photo-Etched Detail Set

Voyager Model FE48016 is a high-quality photo-etched detail set designed for the Tamiya 32597 plastic kit representing the German medium tank Panther Ausf. A or D in 1/48 scale. This product was developed to precisely replicate the side armor skirt elements, known as "Schürzen," used on German tanks during World War II.

Historical Information and Application

Panther A/D tanks were used by the armed forces of the Third Reich (Wehrmacht) starting in 1943, with their combat debut on the Eastern Front during Operation Citadel at Kursk. Schürzen, or thin steel side skirts, provided additional protection against anti-tank projectiles, especially shaped-charge ammunition. This set replicates components typical of the World War II era.
