Description

Dedicated German antitank vehicles made their first major appearance within the Second World War as combatants developed effective armored vehicles and tactics. Some were little more than stopgap solutions, mounting an antitank gun on a tracked vehicle to present mobility, whilst others were more sophisticated designs. The book covers the advance and technology right through the war that led to tank destroyers like the Panzerjger I, Sturmgeschtz, Marders, Nashorn. Hetzer, Jagdpanzer, Elefant, Jagdtiger IV and Jagdpanther vehicles being developed.

As the war progressed the tank destroyers fire power turned into more lethal to fulfill the ever increasing threat against Soviet armor. Larger and more powerful variants entered the battlefield, but due the overpowering enemy opposition they were compelled not only to attack armor, but to strengthen ground troops too. This comprehensive account covers all of the Nazis mobile antitank vehicles in words and images.
