What impact did the Panzer have in World War 2?
Panzer=Armor. Therefore your question is asking "what impact did armor have in WWII?" Armor=Tanks=Panzer was simply an evolution process. Before tanks, men fought USING HORSES. In WWII every combatant nation (the smart ones) exchanged their HORSES for tanks! All combatants in WWII had tanks (panzers, armor); the USSR had T34 medium tanks; the US used M3 Stuarts & Lees; the French & Italians used Renaults and Fiat tanks; Japan had Type 97 medium & Type 95 light tanks; Germany had Mk I thru 7's. Just part of the evolution of mankind...horses to tanks, swords to rifles!

The Korean War was a re-play of WWII. With the exception of the jets, aircraft used in the war were WWII planes; this includes the bombers like the B29 Superfortress. The tanks, rifles, machine guns, helmets, hand grenades, mortars, artillery, were also WWII equipment. In fact, many of the US pilots, airmen, tankers, infantrymen, artillerymen, etc. were WWII veterans. Only 5 years separated Korea from WWII.
