The VK 30.02 (DB) is one of the proposals by Daimler Benz for the Panthers design being of the 30 ton weight class as well as adopting several features of the T-34 like frontal, side and rear sloped armor, an overhanging gun, overall shape, a diesel engine with rear transmission, and jettison-able external fuel tanks. Of course not a complete copy paste as it of course had German design cough Interleaved road wheels cough.

The VK30.02 (DB) was ordered into production with an initial target of 200 vehicles partly due to Hitler liking the design. Hitler also requested the longer 7.5cm KwK L/70 gun rather than the 7.5cm KwK L/40used on the Panzer IV F2-G. The Waffenprufamt 6 committee however favored the more conventional - in terms of German design and engineering - VK 30.02 (MAN) aka the Panther that was actually produced. It was stated that the Daimler Benz proposal was to "Russian"

A prototype hull was built, possibly 3 different variations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VK_30.01-30.02_(D)#/media/File:VK_3002_(DB)_1.jpg

The VK 30.01 (DB) possibly had the T-34 sale road wheels but I'm unsure and need to do further research. Until then, this is practically done, I hated making the turret of this things, some weird shape, its not even entirely correct but I'm sick of it.
