There was no VK 30.02(D). The development program dead-ended with the VK 30.01(D). The VK 30.02 was a MAN design and so was (M).aurelien wolff wrote: ↑24 Jun 2019, 08:29Sometimes I see the daimler benz submission for the panther name Vk3001(DB) but my source say it's name VK3002(DB):

Thomas L. Jentz and Hilary Louis Doyle, Germany's Panther Tank: The Quest for Combat Supremacy, (Atglen, PA: Schiffer Military Publishing, 1995), pp. 14-18. No, the tank proposed by Daimler-Benz for the 30-ton class tank under the "Panther" nomenclature on 2 March 1942 as the VK 30.02 (D) was simply the VK 30.01 (D), insofar as I know there was no real change in the design.aurelien wolff wrote: ↑24 Jun 2019, 21:26any source regarding that statement? wasn't that tank proposed by daimler-benz for the panther programm?
