Just love the Jagdpanzer IV L/70 with it's sloped front very low silhouette 👍👍👍

[@davidk6269]

I love it as well! The Jagdpanzer IV/70 is my favorite turret less tank destroyer of WW2!

[@paoloviti6156]

@@davidk6269 if handled correctly it was a formidabile tank killer and had a very powerful and precise gun!!

I didn’t expect to ever see a working one of these, especially in such an awesome condition.

[@ingurlund9657]

Firepower of a Panther. Frontal protection not quite as good as it wasn't as steeply sloped as a Panther but still good. 25.7 tons not 45 tons. Very good.

Actually, Jagdpanzer IV upper glacis 80mm is angled at 50 degrees, so it's actually better than the Panther's upper hull plate at 55 degrees. However Jagdpanzer IV lower hull upper glacis is 50mm at 55 degrees.

@@knot3d_ 50 degrees back from the vertical is not as steeply sloping as 55 degrees back from the vertical.

[@knot3d_]

@@ingurlund9657 I guess it depends on how they measured it; back from vertical or horizontal. It gets a bit confusing because online resources list discrepancies; I've seen 40, 45, 47 and 50 degrees listed. Anyway, the role is so different from a medium tank, bit hard to draw direct comparisons, no?

Nice!

Something an Allied tanker might see just before everything goes dark.

Not sure it was Jagdpanzer, sometimes just Panzer IV/L70
