The organization for the four pages for each tank covered is usually:
-- Colored drawing
-- Text, with a photograph
-- Line drawings (usually left profile, top, front and rear)
-- Technical data, with 2 more photographs

The tanks covered are:
-- Neubaufahrzeug ('Newly Built Vehicle'), both the Krupp and Rheinmetall versions are addressed
-- Panzer I
-- Panzer II
-- Panzer 35(t)
-- Panzer 38(t)
-- Panzer III (short)
-- Panzer III (long)
-- Panzer IV (short)

-- Panzer V Panther
-- Panzer VI Tiger I
-- Panzer VI Tiger II (a.k.a. King Tiger)
