The Rheinmetall Panzerwagen is a German tier 10 light tank.
On June 8, 1957, Rheinmetall recorded a patent for a new light tank with an oscillating turret and a gun with trunnions. The proposed design allowed engineers to equip light vehicles with powerful 90-mm and 105-mm guns while preserving the minimum vehicle height. Rheinmetall did not have their own chassis for the subsequent tank production, and they offered their turret to other plants. The vehicle is a project on the basis of the Hanomag and Henschel chassis. Existed only in blueprints.
Currently second fastest tracked light in the game (But still slower than pre-nerf Ru 251, or the tier 3 Pz. I C). Carrying a huge gun that is "popped out" of its turret, this tank boasts the highest penetration and of all tier 10 LTs. Unfortunately, this huge gun can be damaged easily and has a very low ammo capacity.
The Rheinmetall Panzerwagen marks the end of its German light line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Highest top speed for a tracked vehicle in the game, great acceleration and hull traverse speed
- Excellent HE penetration, the best for a Tier 10 light tank
- Great gun depression, the turret is also small
- Highest base viewrange in the game at 420 metres
- Largest hitpoint pool in tier/class, tied with XM551 Sheridan
Cons:
- Large profile with subpar camo for a light tank
- Paper-thin armor, can take catastrophic damage from HE hits and ramming
- Low alpha damage and subpar DPM
- Limited ammo capacity
- Very prone to flipping when maneuvering at high speed
Performance
The Rhm. Panzerwagon serves fantastically as a concealed scout tank. It can make great use of speed but it is usually played as a support vehicle. It is very effective in close end game situations however, its dispersion and aim time are its main downsides.
