Location History:
(see map)

1: Maschinenfabrik Niedersachsen-Hannover (MNH) GmbH, Linden, Hannover, Lower Saxony, Germany (Under British control 1945)
2: The Tank Museum - Public Areas, Bovington, Dorset, South West England, Britain (Current location)


At the end of the war, when the Allies occupied Germany, a detachment of the Royal Electrical & Mechanical Engineers (REME) set up a workshop in one of the Panther factories and, with the help of the local workforce, completed the manufacture of a number of Panther tanks and Jagdpanthers. The plaque on the glacis of this Jagdpanther indicates that it was one of these vehicles; however, the plaque has been painted over and is no longer legible. It was put on the museum books in 1951.
