Jagdpanther Tank Destroyer Jagdpanther

The Jagdpanther tank destroyer was developed by Germany's Krupp company in January 1942. Based on the Panther tank chassis, it had a combat weight of 45.5 tons and featured a unitary design with a forward-sloping armor plate. The frontal armor consisted of an 80mm steel plate sloped at 55°. The vehicle was 9.87 meters long, equipped with a Maybach HL230 P30 engine, and had a maximum road speed of 55 km/h. Its main weapon was the 88mm Pak43/3 L/71 cannon, firing Pzgr.39 capped armor-piercing shells and Pzgr.40/43 tungsten-cored armor-piercing shells, capable of penetrating 153mm of homogeneous armor at 2000 meters.

The scale of this tank model is 1:100. For other model scales, please proportionally adjust the print part sizes yourself. For assembly instructions, please refer to the image below:

Printing parameters: layer height 0.1mm, line width 0.3mm. The print profile I set for printing speed and acceleration is relatively slow to improve model quality and adapt to more printer models. You can increase the speed according to your printer's actual capabilities to reduce printing time.

PS: The cylindrical part next to the vehicle body is not a part of this model that needs to be assembled (as shown in the figure below). It is only there to increase the printing time for the last few layers, preventing deformation of the exhaust pipes at the rear of the vehicle body due to insufficient cooling caused by too short a layer time:
