GERMAN PANZER IV AUSF. H – LATE PRODUCTION 1/48

The Panzer IV was one of the most feared weapons in WWII, and would
serve German forces throughout the conflict in the guise of a number of
variants. The Ausf.H variant itself featured early, middle and late
production types, all of which were armed with a L/48 75mm gun and
featured «Schürzen» armor side skirts for greater protection. Late
production Panzer IVs were identifiable by their tracks: they lacked a
center guide. Upper road wheels had their rubber tires removed and were
made into steel wheels, while the tank received cast metal idler wheels.
3,774 Ausf.H Panzer IVs were produced between April 1943 and July 1944,
and it was eventually succeeded by the Ausf.J.

The Tamiya model in 1/48 scale captures every detail and nuance of
the real life subject thanks to extensive research of the full size
vehicle.
