Rommel's tanks were commonly referred to as "Afrika Korps" tanks, as he commanded the German Afrika Korps during World War II. One of the most notable tank models he utilized was the Panzer III, along with the Panzer IV. These tanks were known for their effectiveness in North African desert warfare. Rommel's tactical use of these armored vehicles contributed to his reputation as a skilled commander.
