Description

Panzer Tracts No. 18 – Panzerkampwagen 38 (t) Ausf.A to G and S Production, Modification, and Operational History from 1939 to 1942
Now for the first time, we have compiled an accurate record of the features of each Pz.kpfw.38(t) Ausfuehrung. The correct pieces of the puzzle were found through a lot of hard work, research trips to measure and study the survivors, close attention to detail, and help from friends. Over one thousand hours were spent carefully measuring and drawing all the details of surviving Pz.Kpfw.38(t) chassis and turrets to create accurate four-view drawings of the Ausf.B, C, D, E, F, and S and six-view drawings of the Ausf.A and G. Extra efforts were also expended to draw details on the chassis and belly. As is our high standard, Panzer Tracts are based solely on the content of primary source documents. The real value of the Pz.Kpfw.38(t) can be learned by reading the experience reports written by unit commanders close to the time when the actions occurred. This 76 page book is illustrated with 50 drawings and 67 clean/rare photos with captions that correctly identify the external characteristics of each Ausfuehrung.
