Tamiya 1/35 German Panzer IV/70(A)
In 1944, the end of WWII, the German Army tried to improve fire power of the German Tank Panzerkampfwagen, and the German Panzer IV/70(A) developed based on this plan. To shorten its development cycle as much as possible, the hull was based upon the German Tank Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf. J, which was under production at that moment, combined with the fixed fighting compartment with L/70 7.5cm long barrel gun of the IV/70(V) Lang. The Panzer IV/70(A) also featured stiff wire mesh panels called Thoma Schürzen. Around 280 produced in total and it saw service in both Eastern and Western Fronts.
Tamiya has faithfully captured the German Panzer IV/70(A) in every detail! It comes in 1/35 scale and is sure to attract military history aficionados and modelers alike around the world!
