This detailed kit replicates the mid production Hetzers unique design features, including armour, muffler, wheels and tracks. Precise attention to detail, including slanted armour, leaf-spring suspension, as well as MG34 machine gun. Lower hull features die-cast chassis for added weight and realism. Straight upper and lower track sections are built as single pieces for easy assembly. Includes decals for 3 different kinds of markings.
Surrounded by slanted armor on all four sides, the Hetzer featured a compact and low style for an aggressive design. Manned by a crew of 4, the Hetzer featured a 75mm L/48 gun in fixed mounting. Development time was minimized by using components from the Czech 38(t), and over 2,800 models were produced in all from April 1944 to the end of WWII. Serving as the main tank destroyer for the later half of WWII, the Hetzer was seen on both eastern and western fronts.
