Developed in the late 1930s, the Panzerkampfwagen IV'more commonly
called the Panzer IV'would see service throughout World War II on every
major front. Designed under the guidance of the famous tank General
Heinz Guderian, this tank would eventually become the main tank of the
German army. The Panzer IV was the only German tank that remained in
production during the entire war, and more than 8800 were completed by
war's end. Originally envisioned as an infantry tank that would be
deployed to support infantry formations, the Panzer IV was not designed
to fight enemy tanks directly. However, when the German army was
confronted by superior Soviet tanks, this robust and reliable was
quickly upgraded and converted to the role of tank fighter. The
Ausf'hrung D (version D) model of the Panzer IV entered production in
1939 featured improved armor protection compared to earlier models and a
machine gun for use against infantry. It's 75mm short-barreled howitzer
could fire both high explosive rounds, or Panzergranate armor-piercing
shells that could penetrate up to 43mm of armor at ranges up to 700 meters.
