Product: 1:35 GER. Sd.Kfz.167 Sturmgeschütz IV
The Sturmgeschütz IV was developed on the chassis of the Panzer IV
medium tank to provide the German army with an assault gun capable of
effectively serving as a tank destroyer in the later stages of World War
II. The Stug IV was equipped with a Stuk40 75mm L/48 high-velocity gun
installed in a casemate, protected by armored mantlet, capable of
penetrating the armor of major enemy armored vehicles. Distributed to
units in the early months of 1944, it supplemented and often replaced
the Stug III assault gun, which had experienced a sudden decrease in
production in 1943 due to increasingly frequent Allied bomber raids on
German industrial areas. Widely deployed on the Eastern Front, the Stug
IV was also utilized by armored units and anti-tank detachments of the
Wehrmacht in Normandy, where its low profile proved to be particularly
difficult to identify in the hedgerows of the French countryside.
Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.
