Tamiya 35087 German Sturmgeschtz IV (1/35) – Plastic Model Kit

Tamiya 35087 German Sturmgeschtz IV is an exceptional 1/35 scale plastic model kit, faithfully replicating the legendary German tank destroyer Sturmgeschütz IV from World War II. This model is a true-to-life replica of the vehicle that served in the Wehrmacht from the end of 1943 until the end of the war in 1945. The Sturmgeschütz IV was created as a response to the growing needs of anti-tank units on both the Eastern and Western Fronts. It was a development of the successful StuG III design, based on the Panzer IV chassis, and was characterized by its sturdy construction, low profile, and reliability. This vehicle was equipped with the effective 7.5 cm StuK 40 L/48 gun and was used in, among others, battles on the Eastern Front, in Italy, and in the defense of the Third Reich's territory.

The Tamiya model is made from high-quality plastic, ensuring that the details are extremely sharp and realistic. The kit includes precisely crafted components, such as a realistically reproduced hull, detailed suspension, armament system, and external equipment details—all in accordance with the original vehicle’s plans. Additionally, the set includes decals for German unit markings and a clear assembly manual, which significantly facilitates building even for intermediate modelers.
