While we're talking about ww2-era German tanks with feline names, they also had the Lynx, which was a heavily modified Panzer II. It was essentially a command and reconnaissance vehicle, built on an obsolete, though upgraded, chassis. They also had the Jagdpanther and Jagdtiger, which were non-turreted, limited-traverse versions of their namesakes. Other armored vehicles with animal names included the Nashorn (rhinoceros), Elefant, Hetzer (hunting dog), Brummbar (grizzly bear), Wespe, Grille, and many more. Not that any of this has anything to do with cycling, but there it is. Yes, I'm a tank nerd. My avatar photo is the Panther in the Jacques Littlefield collection on Portola Valley, CA. Great place to tour, if you're in the area, and they're still open.
