In continuous production from 1936 until 1945, the Panzer IV was the armoured 'workhorse' of the German Army in the Second World War. Designed originally as a heavy 'support' tank for its stable mate, the lighter Mark III in the Panzer divisions, it became one of the key instruments of the Blitzkrieg victories, in the early war years. This programme traces the long history of this most versatile of German tanks, and documents a combat career that finally ended with the destruction of the last Mark IV's in Syrian service by the Israeli Army on the Golan Heights in 1967.
