<p><strong>This Support Came With Fire Power!</strong></p> <p>During the middles stages of WWII, most German military vehicles had trouble providing adequate support to troops, therefore the N type tank was built to help solve this problem. The N type tank replaced its Marder III main battery with a 7.5cm gun which could fire high-performance high-explosive bursting projectile shells. From June 1942 through to August 1943, existing J, L, &amp; M models also received these upgrades and 663 tanks were fitted, and another 37 were also upgraded later in 1944. In the summer of 1942 these tanks appeared on the battlefield with their highly explosive shells, and they proved to be highly efficient in their role of reinforcing the ground troops. They were deployed into newly organized heavy tank battalions, to make up for the lack of Tiger I tanks. As a support tank, the N type was easy to manage and very reliable, and in the latter half of WWII it fought at many fronts.</p> <h3>Features</h3> <ul> <li>This is a 1/35 plastic assembly model kit of the German Panzerkampfwagen III Ausf.N tank.</li> <li>Length 154mm.

<p>The Type 1 SPG was a combination of the Type 97 medium tank chassis with the powerful 75mm field gun, and it packed a significant punch, capable of defeating 85mm of armor from a kilometer away. The open top fighting compartment was furbished with 50mm thickness armor skirting. 140 examples were produced between 1943 and the end of WWII; these vehicles were deployed with armor units such as the 2nd Armored Division, which was active on Luzon in the Philippines in resistance to U.S. landings. Using ambush tactics and regularly changing positions, they managed to slow U.S. forces and even destroy some Sherman tanks.</p> <p>The Kurogane 4x4 was developed in answer to a specification from the Japanese Army, and underwent numerous modifications after it entered service. That produced from 1937 was a 3-seater with 33hp 1.4-liter V2 engine, double wishbone front suspension, and a leaf-sprung rigid rear setup. Highly mobile on- and off-road, around 4,800 were produced between 1935 and 1944, contributing in reconnaissance and communications roles to the Japanese war effort from China to the Pacific islands.</p> <p><strong>FEATURES</strong></p> <ul> <li>This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit.</li> <li>Length: 170mm (Type 1); 102mm (Kurogane 4x4).</li> <li>The Type 1 SPG form is accurately captured - open top fighting compartment, 75mm gun, riveted hull, suspension and more.</li> <li>Belt-type tracks can be cemented and painted.</li> <li>Type 1 features two crew figures and four marking options.</li> <li>Detailed depiction of Kurogane 4x4 with folded back hood is included, with one standing figure and four marking options.</li> <li>Kurogane 4x4 parts are a product of FineMolds.</li> </ul>

<h3>‘Sankas’</h3> <p><strong>WWII Wehrmacht Ambulance Trucks</strong></p> <p>All tasks related to the medical support needs of the Wehrmacht were carried out by the Army Medical Service (Sanitaetskorps der Armee in German). Various transport vehicles were used for the transportation of the wounded, including horse-drawn carts, armored personnel carriers, or ambulance trucks. Ambulance trucks for evacuating the wounded were mostly converted versions of military and civilian vehicles, including both standard wheeled vehicles and half-tracked “Maultiers.” These vehicles had enclosed bodies equipped with stretchers for transporting the wounded. They also had markings and camouflage corresponding to the military unit to which the vehicle belonged. The Red Cross was painted in a white circle or square without a strictly defined size. Often, the only marking on the trucks was a white flag with a red cross. In Wehrmacht soldier folklore, medical transport vehicles were nicknamed ‘Sanka.’</p> <!---->
