Dragon 1/72 Sd Kfz 171 Panther Ausf F

The Dragon 1/72 Sd Kfz 171 Panther Ausf F (HC-D7647) presents a finely detailed representation of the final evolutionary step of Germany’s famed Panther. Although the Ausf F never entered production, this kit captures the late-war design centred on the Schmalturm (narrow) turret with enhanced armour and a reduced frontal profile.

Engineered with Dragon’s advanced moulding, the kit reflects the Ausf F’s defining features, including steel-rimmed road wheels and one-piece DS tracks for convenient assembly. The completely retooled turret depicts the correct shape and profile, with provision for a stereoscopic rangefinder and infrared sight equipment, and the armament layout featuring the 75 mm KwK44/1 L/70 main gun and a coaxial MG42.
