Dragon 6830 Panther Ausf.D V2 Versuchsserie 1/35

The plastic model kit Dragon 6830 Panther Ausf.D V2 Versuchsserie 1/35 is a unique proposition for advanced modelers who appreciate the faithful recreation of details of historical armored vehicles. The model depicts the second prototype of the Panther Ausf.D tank in the V2 version, which was one of the experimental series units developed by Germany during World War II. This armored vehicle was used, among others, during field evaluations and technical tests in the years 1942–1943, and its construction solutions contributed to the success of the later serial versions of the Panther tank on both the Eastern and Western fronts.

The Dragon 6830 model is reproduced in the popular 1/35 scale, which allows very precise capture of the prototype’s unique features—the characteristic turret shape, suspension details, and the original design of the viewports and hatches. The manufacturer ensured authenticity by adding components not found in production Panthers, such as the unique exhaust layout and armor detailing.
