The famous Arab Panzer IV which fought in the Six-Day War has been finally announced by Dragon, as it was one of the most known vehicles.
Expected for August, this Panzer IV Medium Tank kit has been updated with new components like the MG mount and a new storage box on left fender to match its service in Arab forces.

Again, the model is part of the series of 1/35 scale kits featuring armored fighting vehicles that participated Six-Day War, which was fought from June 5-10, 1967 in the Middle East, and is not expected to be available again in the future.

To be more clear, I should have said "IMMEDIATELY AFTER WW2 the only surviving AND FULLY FUNCTIONAL Panthers remained in French Army hands." I was not referring to museum units, but to operational tanks. The ones that could be supposedly sold to Syrian army.

What eventually happened to the French Panthers? Were they just scrapped with no regard to future generations who would just love to have running Panthers?

Many of them still exist in museums.

At least dragon is doing something halfway interesting with these reboxes. About time!😋

I think that you will have to use this as the base kit and add or subtract from it as your modelling abilities and wallet permits

Glad to see this, even if it requires some tweaking.
