by Daimler Benz, Henschel, Krupp, MAN, and Rheinmetall to provide initial training
vehicles to the Third Reich. The Panzer I Ausf A ohne Aufbau was just a Panzer

crewed by students and a instructor with room for three more student onlookers.
The suspension and hull were the same as the Panzer IAusf A, but total weight
was reduced to 3.5 tons and height to 1.15 m. Performance was similar. |
