The Panzerkampfwagen 38(t), was a Czechoslovak-designed light tank used mainly by Germany during World War II.
In Czechoslovak service, it had the formal designation Lehký tank vzor 38 or LT vz. 38 / LT-38.
A total of 1,400 were built by Czechoslovakia, and saw service during the early years of World War II until 1942 when the production stopped because it's main armament was deemed inadequate, the chassis of the Pz. 38(t) continued to be produced for the Marder III, and newly designed chassis was used for the Jagdpanzer 38, which used some of the Pz. 38 components.
The letter (t) stands for Tschechisch the German word for Czech, the Germans would do this for all captured tanks and vehicles.
