Historical background and application of Zimmerit

Zimmerit coating was applied to German armored vehicles during World War II, mainly in the years 1943-1944. Its purpose was to prevent magnetic mines from adhering to the armor. Panther Ausf. D tanks (Panzerkampfwagen V Panther) were among the most important German combat vehicles, used on all fronts of the conflict during World War II, including on the Eastern and Western fronts, such as the Battle of Kursk and the fighting in Normandy.
