Tamiya is pleased to announce a new addition – the German Panzer IV/70(A) (a Panzerkampwagen IV variant)
- to the 1/35 Military Miniature Series. In 1944, the end of WWII, the German Army tried to improve fire
power of the German Tank Panzerkampfwagen, and the German Panzer IV/70(A) was developed based on
this plan. In order to shorten its development term as much as possible, hull was based upon the German Tank
Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf. J which was under production at that moment, combined with the fixed fighting
compartment with L/70 7.5cm long barrel gun of the IV/70(V) Lang. The Panzer IV/70(A) also featured stiff
wire mesh panels called Thoma Schürzen. Around 280 produced in total saw service in both Eastern and
Western Front.
