Panzerjager Jagdpanther
This is my 4th model.So,this is it's FAQs.The 559th Heavy Tank Hunter Battalion,equipped with Jagdpanthers,was attached to I SS Panzer Corps in the Ardennes Offensive in December 1944 .This Jagdpanther is painted in the colours Dunkelgelb (tan) RAL 7028,Rotbraun (red brown) RAL 8017 & Olivgrun (olive green) RAL 6003.This was the Hinterhalt (ambush) camouflage scheme for the end of summer & the beginning of the autumn,which became the regulation standard from August 1944.The aim of the camouflage scheme was to blend the tank into its forested surroundings,so that from a distance the markings resembled the effects of shadow & light produced by the leaves of trees.
