Hitler's Tanks - German Panzers of World War II

The Panzers that rolled over Europe were Germany's most famous fighting force, and are some of the most enduring symbols of World War II. However, at the start of the war, Germany's tanks were nothing extraordinary and it was operational encounters such as facing the Soviet T-34 during Operation Barbarossa which prompted their intensive development.
Tactical innovation gave them an edge where technological development had not, making Hitler's tanks a formidable enemy.

"Hitler's Tanks" details the development and operational history of the light Panzer I and II, developed in the 1930s, the medium tanks that were the backbone of the Panzer Divisions, the Tiger, and the formidable King Tiger, the heaviest tank to see combat in World War II.
Drawing on Osprey's unique and extensive armour archive, Chris McNab skilfully weaves together the story of the fearsome tanks that transformed armoured warfare and revolutionised land warfare forever.

Die deutsche Panzerwaffe - Typen, Technik, Taktik 1939-1945

A tank is more than a rolling iron fortress - and it was precisely this conception (which was so different from that of the Allies) that helped the Germans achieve their astonishing successes in the first years of the war: They recognized early on the striking power of the new branch of the military, created an appropriate structure and developed the appropriate operational principles.

Pages of the book "Die deutsche Panzerwaffe - Typen, Technik, Taktik 1939-1945"

In this volume, successful author Alexander Lüdeke explains and describes not only the tank types - from the reconnaissance tank to the King Tiger - but also the background, structures and operational principles, i.e. everything that was even more important than technology and armament.
