Tank description:
The Panzerjäger I is a German tier 2 tank destroyer.Development of the Panzerjäger I, the German tank destroyer, started in 1939 based on the Panzerkampfwagen I Ausf. B. Initially, the 37-mm Pak 36 gun was mounted on the chassis of the Panzerkampfwagen I Ausf. B. However, during the invasion of Poland, it was revealed that the gun was not effective against new vehicles. After Germany captured Czechoslovakia in 1940, the 47-mm Pak 36(t) L/43.4 (Škoda 47-mm A-5 KP ÚV vz. 38 Model A5) gun was mounted on the tank destroyer. A total of 202 vehicles were manufactured and saw action until 1943.It has low engine power, making it slow and unwieldy, although it a powerful cannon: the 4.7cm L/43. Its low weight helps it rotate more quickly for faster target acquisition. Overall, this tank destroyer can be a fun learning curve as you adapt to the differences between a TD and a tank.The Panzerjäger I marks the end of its German tank destroyer line.
