Panzer IV Ausf. H Medium Tank
History
The Panzerkampfwagen IV (PzKpfw IV), commonly known as the Panzer IV, was a German medium tank developed in the late 1930s and used extensively during the Second World War.
The Panzer IV was the most numerous German tank and the second-most numerous German armored fighting vehicle of the Second World War, with some 8,500 built.
The Panzer IV saw service in all combat theaters involving Germany and was the only German tank to remain in continuous production throughout the war. It received various upgrades and design modifications, intended to counter new threats, extending its service life.
Generally, these involved increasing the Panzer IV’s armor protection or upgrading its weapons, although during the last months of the war, with Germany’s pressing need for rapid replacement of losses, design changes also included simplifications to speed up the manufacturing process.
the Ausf. H, began production in June 1943 and received the designation Sd. Kfz. 161/2.
Features
Articulated turret and gun with simulated sound and recoil.
Highly detailed interior and exterior.
Mind numbingly "fast" speed of 6 m/s.
"Extreme" fuel efficiency allowing it to travel almost out of sight.
Almost to-scale body, a bit closer to the size of a Maus though.
This is the first in a line of tanks I will be releasing eventually.
