Its construction resulted from the need to build a vehicle capable of confronting any Allied armored weapon. Despite its colossal size and weight exceeding 180 tons, only two prototypes of the Maus were built by the Krupp factories. The version with the Krupp turret featured two guns: a powerful 128 mm main gun and a supplementary 75 mm gun. These tanks did not take part in combat, but their prototypes have survived to this day as museum exhibits. The Panzer Art product reflects the details of the actual mantlet and weaponry, recreating them with exceptional attention to historical and technical accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of use: Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical period: World War II (years 1944-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality resin and metal barrels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditions: metal main gun barrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: conversion set, accessories for plastic\/resin models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: detail improvement, replacing standard parts with more accurate replicas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis product is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers who want to enhance the realism of their models.
