[About actual vehicle]
- One of the fixed firing tower fighting vehicles developed by the German Army in the Second World War is the IV No. Tank. It was developed as a successor to the No. III assault gun that succeeded with a strong fighting gun with a fixed battle room in the chassis of III tank.
- When prototype vehicles were completed in October 1943 by Fomagu, mass production began in January 1944. The chassis is mainly chassis of type IV H type, J type, and fixed caliber of low silhouette is equipped with 48 caliber 7.5 cm Pak 39 L / 48. It was produced from January to November 1944 and sent to the front line.
- The prototype type manufactured before mass production is 0 series, and the main gun is equipped with 7.5 cm PaK39 / L43. Also, it was a big feature that the joint part of the armor plate on the front and side of the car body became a curved surface.
[About the model]
- The model reproduces the A-0 type of the German Army battle vehicle of the Second World War, the IV No. 9 tank at 1/35 scale.
- Different from mass production type, accurately model the shape of a battle room with a curved surface using a slide die. A battle room that joins the sharp low silhouette The curved surfaces on both sides of the front face create a unique atmosphere.
- Detail is also real on the top of the fighting room. The hatch is assembled by selecting opening and closing, and the inside is also reproduced in detail.
- Sawcor Protection produces a profound feeling with plenty of realism in the expression of casting skin in addition to its shape. The main gun mounted there, 7.5 cm PaK39 / L43 also models the gun barrel base part in detail.
- Sighting device, recoil system, closure device etc are also mechanical finish.
- The lower surface of the chassis also consists of multiple parts including suspension, road wheel, sprocket wheel and idler wheel, so the stereoscopic effect is sufficient. We adopt a belt type DS track which is easy to assemble for crawler belts that tighten the feet.
- [We also set up a Schultzen that is attached to the side of the car body that also reproduces the thickness of the actual car as it is. Schulzen is easy to install with plastic parts.
- Front of the car body diagonally armored board is also set in separate parts. It is a kit that you can enjoy until faithful reproduction reaches details.
