I qgree with you Lieste there's no question in my mind that modern MBTs were designed with the Panther in mind.

One adavantqge the TIger I had is the quality of the steel used for it's manufacturing as Tiger I production wound up essentially by summer 1944 when Germany faced critical shortagees of supplies of crucial alloys like tungsten(wolfram) and manganese.This impacted production of the late Panther ausf G models with more brittle steeland spalling-prone armour.
