Experience the battlefield dominance of the feared German Jagdpanther Sd.Kfz.173 with this highly detailed 1/16 scale metal version RC tank destroyer from Heng Long. This ready-to-run (RTR) replica of the legendary WWII "Hunting Panther" delivers a powerful combination of historical accuracy, robust metal components, and fully immersive features like infrared combat, smoke emission, and realistic sound effects. Renowned for its thick frontal armour and powerful 88mm cannon, the Jagdpanther was a force to be reckoned with during World War II. Heng Long's model pays tribute to this engineering marvel with a rotating gun mantlet (320° superstructure movement), manually adjustable gun elevation, functional suspension, and durable metal tracks. The inclusion of a metal gearbox ensures long-lasting performance across any terrain, whether you're navigating rocky paths, grass, or gravel. The tank’s realistic recoil during firing, smoke from the exhaust, and multiple sound effects—including engine start-up and cannon blast—create an immersive warzone experience. Controlled via a responsive 2.4GHz transmitter, the proportional steering and throttle offer precise, smooth control, while the infrared battle system allows you to engage in mock combat with other compatible 1/16 Heng Long tanks. This premium RTR model arrives fully assembled with a rechargeable battery and charger. Just add AA batteries to the transmitter and you're ready for authentic armoured warfare.
