The Pz.Kpfw. I was the first mass-manufactured tank produced by Germany since the post-WWI armor restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles. The initial 1934 Ausf. A variant was followed in 1936 by the upgraded Ausf. B, which saw engine power increased from 57hp to 100hp, as well as a chassis that was some 40 centimetres longer. It was armed with a pair of MG13 machine guns. Although originally intended only for training use, the Pz.Kpfw. I in fact saw action in the Spanish Civil War from 1936, and then in the German invasions of Poland (1939), France (1940) and the Balkans (1941), and even the ill-fated invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941.
