The Panzer I was a light tank produced by Nazi Germany in the 1930s. The name is short for the German Panzerkampfwagen I. Design of the Panzer I began in 1932, and mass production began in 1934. Intended only as a training tank to familiarize the German Army with the concept of armored warfare, the Panzer I saw action in Spain. during the Spanish Civil War, in Poland, France, the Soviet Union and North Africa during World War II, and in China during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Experience with the Panzer I during the Spanish Civil War helped German tank forces invade Poland in 1939 and France in 1940. By 1941, the Panzer I chassis design was used as the basis for tank destroyers and assault guns. Throughout its service history, there have been attempts to modernize the Panzer I, including from foreign countries, to extend the life of the design.
