Kursk Panthers had Smoke


Recommended Posts

Posted

Now that the game has incorporated tank smoke screens via the new Churchills, it's time to model them for the Panther too..  here is a great website that talks about Panther D's at Kursk and low and behold, they had smoke launchers.  Maybe one day, lol.

I understand that the kursk panthers had their smoke launchers removed because they were activated by combat damage and the tank was blinded

the DD says that only the Pz III and the Pz VI (tiger) will get the smoke system... no panther, sorry... maybe later?
