[Type B No. III Assault Battery]
[Type B No. III Assault Battery]
The assault battery was developed by equipping the body of the No. III tank with a fixed fighting chamber.
The assault battery without a swivel gun tower can carry larger guns and is relatively easy to produce, so it developed into a valuable military power for the German army.
The assault battery was developed as a support vehicle for the Direct Infantry Cooperation. In addition to the powerful firepower, armor, and mobility that can penetrate enemy defense, the total height is required not to exceed human height, and anti-tank fighting was considered.
In 1937, the first prototype 0 series was completed. After 30 units of the Type A, which can be called an additional prototype, were produced, the No. III Assault Battery B became the first full-scale production model.
The low-profile combat chamber is equipped with a short gun, 24-caliber, 7.5 cm artillery. Production began in June 1940. It participated in the Balkan Campaign in April 1941 and the Barbarossa Campaign in June.
Not only the firepower support of infantry but also the 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit of the No. III Assault Battery B.
The total length 115 mm, low-profile, unique figure is modeled realistically. While the number of parts is limited, the detailed expression close to the large model is a must-see.
The chassis is die-cast and gives the weight of the vehicle.
Includes 3 types of decals.
Some parts require instant adhesive for assembly.
