1/72 Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.J Early Production

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

The Pz.Kpfw.161 IV tank was one of the most trusted tanks among German soldiers during World War II. Production started in 1936, and since the body design had plenty of room, it continued to be improved and enhanced according to the war situation without changing its basic dimensions; about 8,500 of this type of tank were produced in total. It took part in the entire war. The J type was the final production type; the main difference between it and its predecessor, the H type, was a lower fuel consumption and simplified equipment. The biggest difference was that the generator and turret rotation motor were removed, requiring manual rotation of the turret. The J type entered production in June of 1944.

This kit from Dragon reproduces the early production type of the J type of the “German warhorse” tank. Its rugged style is fully reproduced, with additional Schulzen armor plating around the hull and turret. The lower part of the hull is slide-molded for accuracy, and the suspension, wheels and sprocket wheels are all sharply reproduced. The tracks are integrated-belt type.
