Does this look to be red numbers with a white outline?

Hard to say but those are likely. The infill could also be blue. Does the photo have a source? If you can identify the regiment its possible to find out what the colours are or at least what that regiment was meant to be.

Hi Tao, it is always tricky to work out some of these colours but I would go for red.
TBH, I've not seen blue used much on panthers. Blue did seem more popular on the King Tigers.
