Panzer 38t (Osprey)

Offers a detailed study of a successful but little-known German tank of World War II, the Panzer 38(t). Germany's annexation of Czech provinces in 1938 gave it control of the large Czech armament industry, one of the jewels of which was the very modern LT 38 tank. The type was fully integrated into the Wehrmacht as the Panzer 38(t), becoming one of the few foreign designs to continue in production for the Wehrmacht.
It was an important element in the 1940 battle of France, and its most famous use was in the hands of Rommel's 7.Panzer Division. The Panzer 38(t) became one of the key weapons in the German invasion of Russia in the summer of 1941, and was widely used in the Eastern Front campaigns of 1941-42.
This illustrated study gives a uniquely detailed account of the technical history and combat record of one of the most successful early World War II tanks.

Contents: Introduction - Design and Development - Operational History - Conclusion and Analysis.

Panzer 38(t) vs BT-7 : Barbarossa 1941 (Osprey)

The tank battles in the Soviet Union during the summer of 1941 were the largest in World War II, exceeding even the more famous Prokhorovka encounter during the Kursk campaign. Indeed, they were the largest tank battles ever fought.

This book examines two evenly matched competitors in this conflict, the German Panzer 38(t) and the Soviet BT-7. Both were of similar size, armed with guns of comparable firepower, and had foreign roots - the Panzer 38(t) was a Czechoslovak design and the BT-7 was an evolution of the American Christie tank.

With full-colour artwork and archive and present-day photography, this absorbing study assesses the strengths and limitations of these two types against the wider background of armoured doctrine in the opening stages of Operation Barbarossa.

Der Panzerkampfwagen 35 (t)

The Panzerkampfwagen 35(t) was developed by the Czech Skoda factory. The German Wehrmacht used captured examples during the invasion of Poland, France and the Soviet Union.
Later, the Romanian, Bulgarian, Slovak and Hungarian divisions received these tanks.

Panzer 35 (t) / 38 (t) (Spielberger)

After the occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1939, the Germans and the armaments industry there also got their hands on the Panzerkampfwagen 35(t) and 38(t).
Because these were clearly superior to their own Types I and II, the Wehrmacht requisitioned these tanks and used them successfully from the Polish campaign onwards. It was only the appearance of the extremely powerful Soviet T-34 battle tanks in 1941/42 that led to their decommissioning.
