Information

Panther D was historically made for long range combat with its long 75 mm KwK 42 gun. Close distance is not the greatest ally for the Panther, with its weak side armour and gun mantlet, it can be easily penetrated by most other tanks at its rank if they can hit these points. Also, the slow turret traverse speed makes it easy for enemy tanks to flank the Panther, therefore close-quarter combat should be avoided if possible. Thus, Panther should be played with a self-established "safe boundary" around the tank to stay safe from flankers. Despite that, as a front brawler, it excels due to the strong front armour and speed. MAN design was made into a prototype in September 1942, when it was officially accepted after testing and named the Panzerkampfwagen V Panther. Where it remained so until 1944, where Hitler removed the V in the designation for the name Panther. Production started in December 1942, though the early models suffered from reliability issues. The production plants expanded from MAN to Daimler-Benz, MNH, and Henschel for increased output. Total number of Panther tanks produced was 6,706. The Ausf. D variant was the first variant designed for the Panther, easily distinguishable by its drum-shaped commander cupola. The Ausf. D can also be distinguished by a unique machine gun port with a shape of a vertical "letterbox" flap from where the machine gun was fired (this was replaced by a standard ball mount in later variants). The Ausf. D also had the initial turret curved gun mantlet that was introduced to the Panther, though there were faults with the design as explained below. 842 Panther Ausf. D was produced from January to September 1943.

Yeah but, the HVAR can easily kill a Tiger, while the M22 can't

because ingame HVAR warhead type is SAP-HE

In War Thunder, the M22 locust can easily penn the side of the Panthers' turret, The M22 locust can also penn the side of the VK 3002, but, HVAR rockets cannot do damage to Panthers, or Vk 3002s
