Flames of War: Ghost Panzers – German Forces on the Eastern Front 1942-43 (2018)

Ghost Panzers centres on the action around Operation Citadel, also known as the Battle of Kursk.

It was here in July 1943, that one of the war’s largest tank battles took place, with over 2450 German tanks and assault guns.

As the ground hardened after the muddy Russian Spring, the German army prepared to launch their Summer offensive, codenamed Operation Citadel. The target was Kursk, a city in the center of a huge bulge in the front line, where several Soviet armies could be cut off and destroyed.

To ensure success, new weapons were rushed to the front, including Ferdinand heavy tank-hunters and Panther medium tanks. These were combined with several panzer and panzergrenadier divisions, totaling an impressive 2,450 tanks and assault guns. Over 3,600 Soviet tanks were waiting for them, setting the scene for the largest tank battle on the Eastern Front...
