1:35 Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf G. Early Production and Motorcycle - Eastern Front - TAMIYA

The Pz.Kpfw. IV was used by German forces throughout WWII, and its Ausf. G variant was particularly notable as the first long-barrelled version of this workhorse tank. Manufactured between March 1942 and June 1943, one of the identifying features of early production Ausf. G vehicles was the rounded muzzle brake. For beleaguered German units trying to take on powerful Soviet T-34s on the Eastern Front, the Ausf. G must have been a welcome arrival. The 2-stroke 350cc engine motorcycle was light and nimble, suiting it well to use in the rugged terrain and often punishing weather conditions on the Eastern Front; it was used for both reconnaissance and dispatch missions, and in fact saw service wherever German troops were in action.
