About the actual car
The first mass-produced type of the Sturmgeschütz III developed by the German army in World War II was the Sturmgeschütz III Ausf.A. Development of the Sturmgeschütz III began in 1936 as a direct support vehicle for infantry. In order to meet requirements such as being equipped with a 7.5cm gun and having the overall height of the vehicle not exceed a person's height, a fixed fighting compartment was created on the body of a Panzer III tank, and the Sturmgeschütz III was born, equipped with a short-barreled 7.5cm gun. The first production model was the Ausf.A, and 30 were produced from January to May 1940. Based on the body of the Panzer III F type tank, the armor on the front and other parts was reinforced. The main gun was a short-barreled 24-caliber 7.5cm assault gun in an enclosed fixed fighting compartment.
About the Model
The model is a 1/72 scale reproduction of the German Sturmgeschütz III of World War II. It is a painted, assembled, plastic model of the first mass-produced model, the Ausf. A. In addition, this finished product reproduces the state in which straw bundles are mounted on the vehicle body for use in camouflage. The model not only reproduces the low, sharp style of the lower part of the vehicle body, the fighting compartment, and the engine deck in detail, but also firmly models the characteristics of the Ausf. A, such as the hinges and bolts on the top of the fighting compartment on the upper part of the vehicle body, and the klappe in front of the gunner. The short barrel equipment, which can be said to be the basic style of the Sturmgeschütz III, is finished in a 1/72 scale with a sufficient atmosphere. The paint, which also includes weathering, and the markings reproduce the German gray vehicle of the 1st SS Panzer Division, LAH. The finished model comes in a clear case, making it easy to collect.
