A true workhorse of the Wehrmacht through WWII, the Pz.Kpfw.IV ran through numerous iterations. This Ausf.J variant was produced from 1944, and the enhanced defensive measures of its design testify to the worsening German situation at that time. The main gun was the 7.5cm KwK 40 L/48 piece taken from the Ausf.H and for defense against approaching enemy infantry soldiers, installed in the turret was a new hatch for throwing grenades. It continued using the borrowed Schürzen from the Ausf.G. Now the Ausf.J is reproduced in stunning 1/16 scale, and comes with a Type 380 motor and gearbox for forward running.
