This kit from the renowned Dragon brand faithfully recreates the German tank destroyer and self-propelled gun from the Second World War period. The StuH.42 (Sturmhaubitze 42) is a variant of the assault gun developed on the chassis of the StuG III Ausf. E and F, adapted to support infantry with a powerful 105mm howitzer.

Historical Context and Application

The 10.5cm StuH.42 gun was introduced into service in 1942 and was used by the Wehrmacht until the end of the war in 1945. Its primary role was to provide fire support for infantry units during combat on both the Eastern and Western fronts. The model reproduces vehicles from the Ausf. E and F versions, which differed in construction details such as the arrangement of observation cupolas, armor, and suspension details. The StuH 42 was used, among others, in urban combat in Stalingrad, the Battle of Kursk, and the defense of Berlin.
