Self-propelled tank destroyers constituted an essential component of the Third Reich’s armoured arm. Vehicles, which were especially useful in defensive warfare, in which the German army found itself after losing strategic initiative on the Eastern Front in the summer 1943 and following the Allied landing in Italy and France, with time began to effectively compete in armoured sub-units with classic tanks. One of the largest vehicles of that type was Sd.Kfz. 173 Jagdpanther, based on the chassis of the famous Panther tank..

The Japanese
destroyers truly made their mark during the war in the Pacific. Fast, heavily
armed and manned by well-trained crews, they took part in some of the most
memorable surface and air-sea battles of the Pacific War, but also in hundreds
of lesser known actions. Those workhorses of the Imperial Navy were employed in
a wide variety of roles – from direct action against enemy fleet to escort
duties and even pure transport tasks. Commander Hara Tameichi rightly observes
that it was the destroyers that bore the brunt of the fighting at sea, and very
few among them were as good as the Kagero class warships.

Following the
defeat in the World War I, the Treaty of Versailles limited the tonnage of the
German Navy to 144 thousand tons. Moreover, the treaty stipulated that new
warships could only be built to replace the decommissioned ones. In 1921 a new
law was enacted which brought about the creation of the Reichsmarine. The few
warships that Germany was allowed to keep were modernized and new ones were
being built to replace the obsolete ones. Construction of light cruisers was a
priority and the first of those, built to replace the Niobe launched in the
19th century, was the Emden. In 1927,
during the disarmament conference in Geneva, Germany demanded equal right as
far as the expansion of the navy was concerned. Those demands were rejected,
therefore, the Reichsmarine drew up the “expansion plan”. It stipulated
construction of new warships within the coming years, including submarines,
which were forbidden by the Treaty of Versailles…
