Product Description

A luxurious version of the command vehicle featuring a star antenna is now available
This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit of the Panzer III Ausf. J, one of the command tanks used by the German army during World War II.

[About the actual car]
During World War II, the German army, which gained an advantage in battles that made the most of its mobility, deployed command tanks equipped with large communication devices to operate and deploy tank units more efficiently.
Among them, the Panzer III Ausf. J is said to have been produced between 1942 and 1943.
Fifteen shells mounted inside the Panzer III Ausf. J were removed, and the space created was used to install a Fu8 medium wave receiver, a Fu5 very short wave receiver, as well as a radio system including transformers, cables, and an auxiliary power supply.
A star antenna for the Fu8 was installed at the rear of the vehicle, and a 2-meter antenna for the Fu5 was installed on the roof of the turret.

This model is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces in 1/35 scale the Panzer III Ausf. J, developed and deployed by the German army during World War II.
The command tank specification based on the Panzer III Ausf. J is sharply reproduced down to the smallest details.

The body of the vehicle reproduces in detail the details unique to the Panzer III tank.
The gun mounts on the sides and around the turret give the vehicle a powerful look.
The turret, which is equipped with a 5cm aluminum barrel gun, is molded as a single piece using a slide mold.
