Clash of Steel Panzer IV/70 Tank-hunter Platoon (x4 Plastic)
Clash of Steel Panzer IV/70 Tank-hunter Platoon (x4 Plastic)
The Clash of Steel: Panzer IV/70 Tank-Hunter Platoon is a meticulously crafted miniature set representing the German Panzer IV/70 tank destroyers, designed to enhance your tabletop wargaming experience.
The development of the Panzer IV/70 (and its predecessor, the SturmgeschĆ¼tz III or StuG III) came from German experiences in World War I. Infantry lacked the necessary firepower to engage fixed defenses effectively so an infantry support vehicle was proposed that could carry a gun that could knock out these emplacements.
The effectiveness of the StuG III on the Eastern Front led to the requirement for a new assault gun with heavier armour and firepower, capable of knocking out Allied armour as well as positions. The Panzer IV/70 achieved both goals featuring thick sloped armour plates and the long 7.5cm PaK 42 gun.
Product Details:

Historical Context: The development of the Panzer IV/70, and its predecessor, the SturmgeschĆ¼tz III (StuG III), stemmed from German experiences in World War I. Infantry units lacked the necessary firepower to effectively engage fortified defenses, leading to the proposal of an infantry support vehicle equipped with a gun capable of neutralizing such positions. The effectiveness of the StuG III on the Eastern Front highlighted the need for a new assault gun with heavier armor and increased firepower, capable of defeating Allied armor and fortifications. The Panzer IV/70 met these requirements, featuring thick sloped armor plates and the long 7.5cm PaK 42 gun.Ā
