Notes: The 382 Jagdpanthers produced combined excellent frontal protection, good mobility, and the 88L71 used on the Tiger II. It was certainly one of the best tank destroyers of WWII. From their first service in June 1944 to the end of the year, they were found only in PzJag units, but in 1945 they also served in various Panzer divisions.
