The panzer force for the early German victories was a mix of the Panzer I (machine gun only), Panzer II (20 mm autocannon) light tanks and two models of Czech tanks (the Panzer 38(t) and the Panzer 35(t)).
The Panzer II was designed before the experience of the Spanish Civil War of 1936–39 showed that protection against armour-piercing shells was required for tanks to survive on a modern battlefield. Prior to that, armour was designed to stop machine gun fire and high-explosive shell fragments.
Panzer, series of battle tanks fielded by the German army in the 1930s and ’40s. The six tanks in the series constituted virtually all of Germany’s tank production from 1934 until the end of World War II in 1945. Panzers provided the striking power of Germany’s panzer (armoured) divisions.
The Panzer 38(t) tanks were used as command vehicles by the Germans during the war. They received various additional radio equipment depending on the precise role that they were to have. Usually, the company commander’s tank was equipped with an Fu 5 transmitter and Fu 2 radio receiver.
The Panzer V medium tank - or 'Panther' - is oft-regarded as Germany's best all-around tank of the war with its potent mix of armor, armament, mobility, and production reach. The Tiger I heavy tank brought an all-new level of lethality against Allied tanker crews and infantry requiring particular attention in any given engagement.
