Historical background and application

The offered cupola is dedicated to the early versions of the legendary German Panther tank, including the Ausf.D variant, which appeared on the fronts of World War II from 1943 onwards. Panther D tanks participated, among others, in the Battle of Kursk, as well as a number of operations on the Eastern and Western Fronts until the end of the war in 1945.
