The first one still has at least a couple original 16 bolt roadwheels. They had trouble with the bolts breaking and the wheel coming apart, so at first drilled holes in between increasing the count to 32. Later they settle on 24 which is what about 99% of the surviving ones have.

One Panther here that may appear rather unassuming which is actually quite unique is the trackless Ausf.G (Fgst.Nr.121455) at Fort Benning GA (ex. Patton Museum, Fort Knox TN) as seen here at 6:52. It's a final production version of the Pzkpfw-V Ausf.G manufactured in April of 1945. Tell tale features are -- small rings welded to each side of the turret for use of camouflage (foliage) attachment, the elimination of the AA-MG mount ring on the commander's cupola with a replacement pedestal AAMG mount in its stead. Interior changes (obviously not seen) would be the elimination of the loader's seat. Although missing now, the vehicle would have had each of its last rubber rimmed road wheel replaced with 800mm steel rimmed road wheels (photos of this vehicle at Fort Knox in the 1950s, when it was in better condition, confirm this). It may seem odd that it lacks the late war "chin" mantlet but that feature was never fully implemented for all Ausf.G's due to production shortages (I'd imagine by April 1945 the Germans were scrounging anything they could find to finish these vehicles).

I' m pretty sure the two tanks between 2.47 and 2.50 are located in Sinheim Technik Museum. The one destroyed tank they didn't restore an let it how it was found and the second running model you can push a knob and chains are running including noise of engine.

Unfortunately the Panthers which are in Belgium are in rather bad condition, although this partly explains the fact that these tanks were damaged during the fighting in the Balge Ardennes in winter 1944-1945, Houfalize's tank had fallen into the river and its crew drowned for example, however this famous tank is being restored, it should be back in 1 year

Question: how do you differentiate an A from a G if there is no chin block?
@SurvivingHistory2 жыл бұрын
What I've noticed when differentiating a Panther A from a Panther G is that a Panther A will have a tiny driver view slit on the UFP of the tank while a Panther G is usually missing said view slit. Of course this tactic may not work for every Panther A and G, but it should *usually* be the key to identifying the model if the chin block is missing.
@THX11458 Жыл бұрын
There are five primary ways of determining an Ausf.A from and Ausf.G: 1) An Ausf.G has no driver's visor on it's glacis plate, instead it has a single rotating periscope atop the front roof, (Ausf.A has a driver's visor with two fixed periscopes on the front roof) 2) The Ausf.G has single piece upper hull side plates sloped at 30 degrees (the Ausf.A has two piece plates sloped at 40 degrees for the upper part and vertical for the lower rear), 3) The Ausf.A has a stepped underside to its pannier, (the Ausf.G has a single flat plate) 4) The Ausf.G has squarish, hinged driver/loader hatches that open out like doors while the Ausf.A has more rounded driver/loader hatches that pivot up and over. 5) The Ausf.G will have its headlight mounted on the front right mudguard/fender (if facing the vehicle), while the Ausf.A will have its headlight mounted on the upper right side of the glacis plate next to the driver's visor (if facing the vehicle). I hope these clues aren't too confusing and help you identify the differences between the two models.
