    the correct name is PanzerKampfwagen that means armoured fighting vehicle
    not just Dr. F. Porsche was a designer of panzers there are also Krupp, Rheinmetall-Borsig,Ni-werke among others
    about your question mmmm, sorry but tanks are tanks, the french army put in use after the war some tigers I and panthers

    I'm not sure which country it was,I think Middle Eastern,but I saw a pic of a Panzer IV next to a T-34.Both were in use at the time.Maybe someone will remember the pic I'm referring to.

    The Panzer IV sent to Spain during the war, when they were retired from the spanish army, were sent (except 2) to the Middle East. At least one of the captured by the israelis was one of those.
