The Panzerj„ger ('Tank Hunter') I was the first of the German tank destroyers to see service in the Second World War. It mounted a Czech Skoda 4.7 cm (1.9 in) cm PaK (t) anti-tank gun on a converted Panzer I Ausf. B chassis. It was intended to counter heavy French tanks like the Char B1 that were beyond the capabilities of the 3.7 cm PaK 36 anti-tank gun then in service and served to extend the usable lifetime of otherwise obsolete Panzer I tanks. Over two hundred were converted in 1940-41 and it served in the West during the Battle of France, in North Africa and on the Eastern Front until all vehicles were either captured or destroyed.
