Apart from the name, the French Panther received something more from its steel predecessors. This Tier VI medium tank bites quickly and accurately and reaches high speed when going after an enemy. The Bretagne Panther requires some training, but a skilled commander will be rewarded not only with additional XP, but also with honor and glory!
Until the end of July, the game Store will offer bundles with Bretagne Panther Containers that may include this vehicle. Each container has a Bretagne Panther Charm. Collect 25 Charms and get the tank!
French Modification of the Famous German Tank
The recognizeable silhouette of the Panther is not a coincidence. After the Allied landing in Normandy, several such tanks were captured by the French Armed Forces.
The Bretagne Panther was designed for support. The right tactics for it would be to stay behind cover, use great elevation/depression angles (−8°, +20°), and bite off enemy HP until there's nothing left. Its accurate gun with 150 mm penetration and impressive 1,900 points of damage per minute (with installed equipment) will easily let you do this.
The Panther is nothing like a kitty: its large size requires skillful positioning as its armor is quite weak. So no open spaces! Fortunately, its top speed of 55 km/h lets it quickly occupy the most comfortable position.
The speed is great, the engine is powerful, but its maneuverability is mediocre because of the low traverse speed. The good amount of HP for a medium tank isn't a solution to everything when the Panther is fighting against a group of enemies, so each movement should be precise and balanced.
Tame the Bretagne Panther and get yourself a dangerous predator: a careful and very effective one!
