The Jagdpanther was differently employed than regular tank destroyers like the Jagdpanzer IV. In this video we look at German primary sources on how the Jagdpanther should be used and also a bit at those for the Jagdpanzer IV. Parts of this video were filmed with the Jagdpanther of the German Panzermuseum Munster.
