The initial Spähpanzer, as it was called was modeled on a design from the cold war of Bruno's past life. But as wartime demands increased, and assembly lines were put to their limit, it was revealed that simply modifying the e-10 chassis for a wheeled base was a more efficient use of resources.
The E-10 Standardpanzer, or simply the Panzer 1 as it was known in this life while having been in production for years, had yet to be see service and was instead being reserved for the final days of the war when the German army pushed into Paris.
