Panther Tank Variant Guide

Taken aback by the success of the Soviet T-34, German engineers came up with a brand new medium tank design - the Panther. The Panther served in the German army for over 2 years, and during that time was significantly improved. 3 variants of the Panther would see service over the course of the war, and you could argue a 4th variant served as well. But what were they? And how can you tell which is which? Any feedback is greatly appreciated, I’m always trying to improve. ((Like and subscribe)) Credit to these excellent articles:
