The Panzerkampfwagen I resulted from the secret tank development that Germany undertook in the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s, and entered service in 1934. It was a lightly-armoured, two-man tank armed with two 7.92mm MG 13 machine guns mounted in a hand-cranked turret. The Panzer I saw action in the Spanish Civil War (1936-39) when Germany supplied them to the Nationalist forces. However, their use in Spain, especially against the Republicans' Soviet-supplied T-26 gun tanks, confirmed to the Germans that they needed larger tanks and ones armed with tank guns not machine guns. This replica Panzer I Ausf B was built in Spain by Jose Martinez and his team and carries the markings of the Nationalist forces in the Spanish Civil War. I filmed it when the tank was visiting The Tank Museum in the UK in September 2023.
