Historical information

The PzKpfw II Ausf F was a German light tank introduced into service at the end of the 1930s. Its primary use occurred during the early years of World War II, including the campaigns in France and North Africa, where it was a key component of the Africa Korps armored forces commanded by Erwin Rommel. Sloped armor, a relatively low profile, and good off-road capabilities made this vehicle highly effective in rapid assaults as well as infantry support on the African deserts.
