History of the Panzerjäger I Ausf.B 4.7cm PaK(t) tank destroyer
The Pz.Kpfw I Ausf.B was used as the basis for the first German tank destroyer, the Panzerjäger I. This vehicle was armed with the 4.7 cm Pak(t) 36 (Skoda 47 mm A-5 PUV vz 36) Czech made.
Its crew consisted of 3 men. The fighting compartment was protected only by a simple shield. A total of 202 examples converted by Alkett (132 between March 1940 and May 1940) and Skoda (70 in February 1941) were produced. This division of production will give rise to two models: that of Skoda had a 7-sided shield and that of Alkett only 5.
