The Panzerkampfwagen IV was continuously developed throughout the war and became one of Germany's most important and versatile medium tanks.

The Pz.Kpfw.IV originated from a German design competition launched in 1934 for a medium tank weighing up to 18 tonnes and armed with a 75mm gun. Krupp won the competition, with the first prototypes appearing in 1936. Approximately 8,600 vehicles were produced between 1938 and 1945. The early Ausf.A had a short-barrelled 75mm gun and a 230hp engine, while the B and C versions introduced more powerful engines and improved armour. The 300hp Maybach HL 120 TRM, as used in the D version, subsequently remained in use within the Pz.Kpfw.IV family until 1945. This D version was armed with a 75mm KwK 37 L/24 and two 7.92mm MG34 machine guns.

The F1 and F2 versions represented an important development, with frontal armour increased to 60mm and the F2 receiving the long-barrelled 75mm KwK 40 L/43 gun, improving its ability to fight Allied and Soviet tanks in 1942 and 1943. The extensively produced G, H and J versions continued this development, with armoured Schürzen also appearing from early 1943. The Pz.Kpfw.IV chassis additionally formed the basis for vehicles including the StuG IV, Nashorn and Wirbelwind. Pz.Kpfw.IV tanks fought on virtually every major front, from Poland and France to Operation Barbarossa, Operation Typhoon, Kursk and the final campaigns of 1944-1945. Dragon 6560 brings this extensive development history to your workbench in 1:35 scale, with fast delivery and excellent customer service from Most-Models.com.
