Product Description
- A specially designed finished product with realistic dirt and winter camouflage
- This is a 1/72 scale painted plastic model of the mid-production Panzer IV J type, which served as the German main battle tank during World War II.
[About the actual car]
- During WWII, the most trusted tank among German soldiers was the Pz.Kpfw.161, Panzer IV.
- Production began in 1936, and since the vehicle was designed with ample room from the start, numerous improvements and strengthening were made to suit the war situation without changing the basic dimensions, and approximately 8,500 vehicles were produced.
- It was used throughout the entire war, from the early stages to the end of the war. The final production model was the J-type.
- It is the successor to the previous H-type, but the difference is that rather than being an improvement, it is a simplification type, with simplified equipment, easier production, and reduced fuel consumption.
- The biggest difference was that the auxiliary engine used to generate power for the turret rotation motor was eliminated and replaced with a manual one.
- It was produced from June 1944 to March 1945 and served on all fronts until the end of the war.
[About the model]
- The model is a 1/72 scale pre-painted, assembled, plastic model that reproduces the mid-production type J type (produced August-September 1944), the final production type of the Panzer IV tank, known as the German war horse.
- This model recreates the vehicle of the 115th Heavy Tank Battalion of the 15th Panzergrenadier Division, which was active in Belgium in 1944, with its distinctive camouflage paintwork with additional winter camouflage paint.
- Of course, the style of the Ausf. IV J is realistically reproduced with its powerful appearance, including the Schurzen around the sides of the vehicle and the turret.
- The overall length is about 75mm, the width is about 40mm. Hatches and rear panels are sharply reproduced down to the smallest detail.
- In addition, the lower body also depicts the bolts and rivets on the underside and sides.
- The engine deck on the upper part of the vehicle is also reproduced in detail.
- The realistic finish makes this an indispensable addition to your 1/72 scale collection.
