1:48 GERMAN ANTI-TANK GUN NASHORN
Item#32600

DESCRIPTION
This is a highly detailed model of the WWII German tank destroyer
Nashorn. The German Army developed self-propelled anti-tank guns
in order to counter the overpowering Russian T-34 and KV tanks,
and the Nashorn had particularly overwhelming power among the
many anti-tank guns produced. The production started in February
1943, and the Nashorn sported an L/71 8.8cm Pak43/1 gun which was
capable of penetrating armor from a long distance. At the
Italian Front, the Nashorn knocked out an M4 Sherman at 2.8
kilometers, and its excellent firepower was indispensable to the
German forces until the end of WWII.
