Initial encounters with the T-34 in 1941 were something of a shock to invading German troops, who had until that point experienced general success with their armored forces. Their response was the Panther, first fielded in 1943. The Ausf.G (Type G) variant followed on from Ausf.D and Ausf.A Panthers; debuting in March 1944, it featured sloped armor, a powerful 700hp Maybach HL-230 engine and a fearsome 75mm gun - all that added up to an imposing combination of firepower, mobility and survivability which proved a boon for German forces and something of a headache for the Allies.
