German Jagdpanther Maybach Engine Start-Up Sound

The Jagdpanther (Sd.Kfz. 173) was one of Germany's most formidable tank destroyers of World War II, widely considered one of the best of its kind. Powered by a Maybach HL230 P30 V-12 petrol engine, the Jagdpanther could reach speeds of around 46 km/h (29 mph) on roads. While it was a heavy vehicle (around 45.5 tonnes), its power-to-weight ratio was good, allowing it to keep pace with other German armored vehicles.
