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.

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.

Panzer : L'encyclopédie des chars allemands de la Seconde Guerre mondiale

A guide to the combat tanks developed by the German Army during the Second World War. Thanks to this exhaustive work, these armored vehicles that marked all the battlefields from 1939 to 1945 with their tracks will no longer hold any secrets for you.
For the first time in French, this collection is full of unpublished photos from private or official collections, precise profiles and technical information of all kinds.

From the Neubaufahrzeug to the Panzer VI Tiger I and II and even the Panzer VIII Maus, all versions of these legendary vehicles are covered in this veritable reference encyclopedia. Each vehicle is the subject of a detailed description illustrated with four-view plates, a technical sheet and a summary text highlighting the main differences between two variants of the same Panzer.

Long introductions for each category (light, medium, heavy and super-heavy tanks) put these machines in their historical context in order to better understand the reasons for their design and short analyses take stock of their performance.
Thus you will be explained the reasons for the commissioning of the formidable Panther and Tiger or the tactical contingencies that led to the development of Panzers of nearly 190 tons armed with a 12.8cm gun.
