The <value_unset_error> is a [[|]] tier .
<value_unset_error>
It is a good artillery for its tier, with the widest (along with the M37) gun traverse arc of any artillery thanks to its limited turret rotation - making it easy to move to new targets without having to move the hull of your tank. The GW Panther starts with the Hummel's gun, but gets a more accurate and powerful gun once researched. The GW Panther cannot excel in the role of a tank destroyer, as the Hummel did due to its size and lack of gun depression, but it can do the job in an emergency. The GW Panther is highly maneuverable for a tier 6 SPG, which allows easy relocation in the event of detection. It is nicknamed "Dracula", due to its Dracula cape-like armor on the rear and side of its gun.
The <value_unset_error> marks the end of its line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- One of the fastest SPGs in the game
- Quick reload
- Accurate for its tier
- Excels in counter-battery and relocation
- Pseudo-turret allows for a 52° firing arc, the highest of any non-turreted SPG in the game
Cons:
- Doesn't do as much damage as other SPGs in its tier
- Easily killable by any light or medium tank.
Performance
Slightly more sluggish than the Hummel, the GW Panther trades some mobility for firepower. Thankfully however, it doesn't give much away for a large gain in power; maintaining maneuverability and speed compared to the other Tier 6 SPGs.
The GW Panther is a very solid arty, my one personal complaint about it is that it seems to fall into the jack-of-all-trades, master of none category. It should be noted however, that it excels in that regard quite well. The GW Panther is perhaps the most balanced Tier 6 artillery in the game.
