The Germans built the Panzerbefehlswagen (pronounced pant-serr be-fails vahgen) command vehicle on the Panzer I chassis. These radio vehicles were the central nervous system for Germany's armoured Blitzkrieg spearheads. The Befehlswagen tanks kept tank platoons and companies moving forward during the invasions of Poland and France.
Each command vehicle was armed with hull machine-gun to help keep enemy infantry at bay and, at times, offer additional firepower to the platoon.
