<div class="postbody"><h3 class="first">InfraRed equipped Panthers-Combat reports?Story's?Discussion</h3><p class="author">by Sbf.Koch on 01 Sep 2004, 00:14</p><div class="content">I have read about IR equipped panthers/sdkfz251's/Stg44's for the first time some 8 years ago.
Some units equipped with these:

116th Panzer Division (3rd company of 24th Panzer Regiment, Western Front, Summer of 1944)
Sixth SS Panzer Army (Hungary, early 1945)
Panzer Division Muncheberg and Clausewitz.

Now I would like to hear some story's / combat reports involving these Uhu's, Falke's and Sperber's (Owl, Falcon, Sparrow) because in my opinion it would do quite some damage - Panthers who can destroy tanks in the pitch dark.. Especially since they existed since 1936 (well, the IR equipment, not the panthers )
This subject is not discussed much - time to start it ey </div></div><dl id="profile524670" class="postprofile"> <dt>
