This brand new plastic model kit features the Panzer IV Ausf.H "Mid Version" Tank with two scheme options at Level 3 in 1/35 scale, produced by Airfix. The kit comes in vintage-style, officially licensed packaging and contains over 200 detailed parts molded primarily in light brown, unless otherwise indicated. A display stand is not included, and paint and cement are required for assembly. Decals are provided to create two different schemes, with the assembled model measuring approximately 7.91 inches in length and 3.22 inches in width. Introduced in mid-1943, the Panzer IV Ausf.H represented one of the most refined and heavily armored versions of Germany’s most widely produced World War II tank. Designed to counter increasingly powerful Soviet armor like the T-34 and KV-1, it featured additional armor plating, factory-installed Schürzen (side skirts), and a reinforced glacis plate. Its long-barreled 75mm KwK 40 L/48 gun provided formidable firepower capable of challenging Allied medium tanks, while its increased protection enhanced battlefield resilience. The Ausf.H saw extensive service on both Eastern and Western Fronts, including major engagements such as the 1943 Battle of Kursk, the largest tank battle in history. Though heavier and slower than earlier versions, its balance of armor, mobility, and firepower made it a cornerstone of German Panzer divisions, and it also saw action in Italy and during the Allied invasion of Normandy in 1944. By the late war years, while showing signs of obsolescence compared to newer tanks like the Panther and Tiger, the Panzer IV Ausf.H remained in production due to its mechanical reliability and ease of manufacture. Crews valued its familiarity and versatility, and it continued to serve until the final days of the war, cementing its legacy as a workhorse of the Wehrmacht. This 1:35 scale model is a meticulously detailed replica, featuring authentic Schürzen side armor, realistic suspension, and battle-weathered textures, capturing the powerful presence of one of WWII’s most iconic tanks.
