Best Answer

A Panzer Army is a Armored tanks with Infantry division in the German Military which included the Wehrmacht and branches of the SS. During the war, an Average Panzer Army would have 4-6 individual Panzer Divisions along with 6-14 Infantry and Cavalry Divisions and each Panzer Division at first contained around 400 Tanks at a time, so A Panzer Army would have around 2,000 Tanks a time. This decreased gradually during the war as soon as Germany launched Operation Barbarossa then Case Blue, which meant splitting the whole German Army on western Front into 3 sections then later on, split them into 2 smaller groups.

When was the Panzer built?

Panzer tanks were built primarily during the period leading up to and during World War II, with production starting in the late 1930s. The exact timeline varies depending on the specific model of the Panzer tank: Panzer I: Production began in 1934, and around 1,400 units were built until 1937. Panzer II: Production started in 1936, and approximately 1,800 units were manufactured until 1943. Panzer III: Production commenced in 1937, with over 5,700 units built until 1943. Panzer IV: Production began in 1936, and over 8,500 units were manufactured until 1945. The Panzer IV remained in production throughout the war, with continuous upgrades and modifications. These tanks were pivotal components of the German military's armored divisions during World War II, playing crucial roles in various campaigns and battles across Europe and North Africa. We have made a video about the Panzer IV tank, which can be seen on our YouTube channel @FunkyHistory
