At 6.0 there is three Panthers, I don’t play this br much and when I do play it I only played the Tiger E and Tiger H1 as backup, if you were to get your first 6.0 Panther, which one do you go after and why? I noticed that the third one could reload faster, and the rest are just 10mm difference in turret armor thickness.
The F has a better reload but its turret armour profile is not as good, it may have a thicker plate but you lose a lot of the trolliness of the regular panther mantlet, and suffers from very poor turret traverse, the A and G are basically the same apart from the Chin the G has fitted to the Mantlet to stop rounds hitting the underside of the mantlet and bouncing down into the hull roof. You cannot really go wrong with all 3, but i would say the G and A are the better of the 3, and of those 2 the G is very slightly better, slightly thicker side plates for slightly thinner lower front plate and the improved mantlet.

The F would be the best if there was no volumetric. But with volumetric, shells that hit the mantlet of the A and G variants tend to dissapear. Somehow they have a black hole in there.
I would go with the G variant, as the poster above me suggested aswell.

A and G are pretty similar. Their turrets are good. Panther F has weak turret and if I remembered right, a weaker engine (may need someone to confirm). Play the panther F if you don’t care about armor and just want to play it like a Leopard 1.
I prefer the A model only for it’s initial faster reload, and turret rotation speed which is better.
Other than that, any of them are good.
F has a rangefinder if u care about that

I absolutely fell in love with Panther G, one of the best medium tanks in my opinion and totally recommend it, but now that Panther G and F are placed under Panther A, unless you are a true fan of it you don’t have to grind it, you can get almost the same experience with Panther A and grind the next tank in line, Leopard I (which spoiler alert, absolutely sucks ass)
Panther II of course.
Obviously Panther F:

Obviously the Panther II, it must be so awesome the Devs do not want all players to experience it. This tank, among two others, must’ve been kissed into War Thunder by God itself and Gaijin are covering it up.

Personally I prefer the Panther Ersatz M10, best one at 6.0 because of the additional armor plates…
Aren’t they just cosmetic or do they really add noticeable protection?
The Panther F is the most Panther Panther.
The increased turret armor, rangefinder and zoom make it optimal for fighting at range.
Truely the first MBT ;)
A Panther F with Maybach H234 would be inredible.
I’m also dreaming about the auto-loader, which would give it a nice boost in firepower.
It adds some millimeters, not much, but can make the difference for you to survive a hit…
Panther A.
Its the easiest to acquire and it is a fine example of a 6.0 medium tank. If you enjoy the Panther A, you will enjoy the Panthers F and G.
If you do not enjoy the Panther A, you will not enjoy the subsequent Panthers.
Generally speaking the F and G models have their unique quirks and upgrades but they are basically the same vehicle.
Technically speaking the Panther F with its range finder is the more capable vehicle. The Panther G has a tougher gun mantlet. Again, if you don’t like the A, nothing on the F and G will change that.
Neither,Ersatz is best,no commander cupola weakspot. Outside of that i have A most played and G after. F is awful with the flat turret everyone shoots at and just oneshot u at.
I guess my spading process was doing hella alright?
So far hadn’t really utilized the advantage of having a range finder as I only got it after getting the engine, I think it will get better since now I can hit long-range targets a lot quicker and fully eliminate the probability of missing shots on targets above 1km. Now I do think F is a much better variant because its overall more well-rounded, even the turret cheek area is actually a smaller target than other variants.
Because the Panther II Gaijin added is 100% fake. It’s basically 3-4 separate projects combined into a single vehicle.

My personal favorite is Panther A, it has a rapid turret traverse and decent speed, trust me its worth it!
