There were multiple panzers designed and built for the Germans over the course of war, from the lightly-armed Panzer 38(t) (actually a Czech-designed model) in 1938 to the massive "[[King Tiger Tank|King Tiger]]" (also known as the "Tiger II") in 1944.

The best-known panzers of the war for the Germans were the '''Panther''' medium tank, originally called the "Panzer V" and '''Tiger I''' heavy tank, originally called the "Panzer VI". The Panter is considered by many to be the best overall tank of World War II, rivaled only by the Soviet T-34/85. The Panther was also used as the basis for many Western tank designs in the immediate post-war era.
