	German tanks in World War II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Panzer force for the early German victories was a mix of the Panzer I and Panzer II machine-gun only light tanks, and Czech tanks (the Panzer 38(t) and the Panzer 35(t)).
		In actual tank-on-tank encounters the German armor performed poorly, in one particular encounter near Arras the 7th Panzer division was badly mauled by the 'Matildas' of the British 1st Tank Brigade, one British tank carried on operating after fourteen hits by German 37 mm guns.
		Despite continued efforts with the lighter tanks throughout the war the German designers did produce a direct counter to the heavier Allied tanks with the PzKpfw V, the Panther (in 1944 the PzKpfw designation was dropped and the vehicle was known simply as the Panther).
