FORGOTTEN PANTHER TANK - Panther G in War Thunder - OddBawZ

The Panther G is probably the least played Panther in War Thunder. I actually see less of these than the locked Panther II. A shame really, it's such an AMAZING tank!

The Panther G is mixed bag of pros and cons. On one hand the mantlet offers good protection against shot traps but on the other it creates a larger weak spot on the turret face much more so than the Panther A and Panther D! In my own opinion it's a much worse design for War Thunder assuming we disregard its purpose in real life.

The chassis as well feels like a direct downgrade over the Panther A. Its reverse speed feels much slower, acceleration is pretty poor in comparison and it also has a Cupola the size of Jupiter.

This vehicle is almost completely superseded by the Panther A in every way in War Thunder but sits at a much higher Battle Rating. This just seems to be the way for German Tanks in War Thunder.

One thing I learned over the years of Playing any game is that you can't rely on your teammates, which is a sad thing.

This has to be my favorite panther variant historically. Such a smart way to improve the shot trap dilemma. But it's made even better when Odd plays it lol

2:34 The Panther G in War Thunder does indeed have a weaker engine than the Panther A (iirc 600 hp instead of 700 hp) to simulate the engine governor that was installed to it that limited the HL230 to 2500 rpm.

Panther G historically was an improvement over the panther A, but ironically it’s a downgrade in WT lol go figure 🤪

"that shouldn't have killed him but it did". Pretty much WT in a nutshell.

0:10 That must be the most terrifying thing ever. Shooting someone and then watching as their turret slowly turns towards you.

10:39 - I'm going to have to disagree. The strongest armor in War Thunder would be tank optics glass. If they ever sheathed a tank in it, that thing would be unstoppable.

Let me get this straight. Gaijin have made the first iteration of the Panther built in WW2 be a better tank than the late war G version which had all sorts of improvements to it's performance. Okay... makes total sense. Battle simulator my foot.

I love how odd has presets for most of the BR’s and one for “Recording” and another for “Fun” lol

[UnicornstalkRGaming]

That machine gun firing during the first match is a glitch
Until he either uses machine gun or gets killed you'll hear and see it
Edit:
That's why he didn't reload for like a solid minute

[Pollefar]

The Panther G has thicker side armor. Its something i guess.
It also has the coolest marketplace camo

[WarFoxThunder]

fun fact: the Lvkv 42 at 6:04 and 9:08 are the same player, HighCard and OddBawlz faced each other twice, in the same match, in the same tank, with the same results.

[hansiminator]

Did he forgot that he have a Third bomb in the plane? xD

[kolos]

Where DID the marder go? WHAT DID YOU DO TO IT ODD?!



Love your content.

[allsetago]

love the return to highlighting favourite vehicles!

The evil empire music in the german intros is just hilarious. :)

Thanks (again) 4 this demo! I painfully grabbed on it 50% of the enhancements yesterday and started to get desperate. Thanks you for the demo, cause now I'm ready to go back to get the 50% left (and to get killed;-) till 100% reached.

7:38 thank you Animoo (opposing team) for killing that asshole in the 1st game who constantly spammed their MGs . It’s the lil things in life
