Introducing the Border Model 1:35 Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.G - MID KHARKOV 1943 model kit, a detailed replica of the German medium tank from the World War II era. This 1/35 scale model kit set from Border Model allows for the precise recreation of one of the Wehrmacht's key armored vehicles, which participated in combat operations in the Kharkov region in 1943.
Historical Characteristics of the Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.G
The Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.G was a German medium tank, a development of the Pz.Kpfw.IV series, extensively used by the Wehrmacht during World War II. Introduced into service in 1942, the G variant became one of the most mass-produced versions of this tank. It was equipped with the KwK 40 L/48 75mm gun, which significantly increased its firepower against enemy tanks. During its production run, the Ausf.G variant underwent a series of modifications, including increased armor, which improved its combat resilience. Despite the emergence of increasingly modern Allied designs, the Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.G played a significant role on various war fronts until the end of the conflict, including key operations in the Kharkov region in 1943, as referenced by the kit's name.
