A serial production of
KVs was launched in
February 1940. KV had the
true innovative design,
embodied the most
advanced ideas:
independent torsion-bar
suspension, heavy
antiprojectile armor,
diesel engine and
powerful 76-mm
all-purpose gun L-11. The
fi rst encounters with KV
shocked the Germans. From
24 June 1941, a single
KV effectively blunted
the drive of the
Wehrmacht 6th Panzer
Division for two days,
blocked off a crucial
road in a marshy terrain
close to Raseiniai,
Lithuania. Before the
crewmen were killed they
had destroyed 12 trucks,
4 antitank guns, 88-mm
AA-Gun, a number of
tanks and dozens of enemy
soldiers.

The appearance of new
German heavy tanks on the
Asian front - the Tiger
in particular -,
stimulated Soviet
engineers to develop a
new generation of
armoured vehicles, based
on the T-100
prototype.The torsion bar
suspension was mounted
higher in the hull,
lowering the tank's
height from the ground
and allowing the
installation of a larger
turret able to hold a
100mm cannon (in the
JS-1) or a 122mm cannon
(in the JS-2, which
appeared at the end of
1943).Production
proceeded at a steady
pace, and by February
1944 all the Red Army's
breakthrough tank
regiments were equipped
with JS-2s. On the
battlefield, the JS-2
showed itself to be one
of the best tanks in the
world, a worthy opponent
of the Panther and the
Tiger, but also of the
much heavier Koenig
Tiger.Scale 1:72

The Jagdpanther is the
tank destroyer version
with a fixed gun based on
the Panther G variant
(No.270) which has been
known as one of the best
tanks of World War II.
This version with its
characteristics of a
compact and ballistically
advantageous shape was
equipped with a
remarkable 88mm gun which
was able to penetrate all
allied tanks, included
the well-protected Soviet
Stalin Is and IIs.This
vehicle went into
production in 1944, and
because of intensive
allied bombing raids
against Germany industry
only reached the
frontlines in limited
numbers and thus had no
impact on the war
efforts.Scale 1:72

The Sturmpanzer Brummbar
was based on a variation
of the hull of the Panzer
IV armoured tank and
devised for the infantry
to reduce need for
bunkers and fortified
resistance centres. This
vehicle was fitted with a
heavy 15 cm howitzer with
shortened mine-launching
barrel, fully capable of
completing its task. 306
models were built in
early 1943 when the
vehicle was first
introduced. Scale 1:72

The ISU 152 was certainly
one of the most effective
tanks deployed by the Red
Army during the course of
WWII.Though the 152mm
cannon had a very low
rate of fire and there
was limited internal
ammunition storage, it
was able to stop all the
German armoured tanks,
as demonstrated at Kursk
in 1943.It was employed
up to the battle of
Berlin and also
subsequently, where the
last remaining specimens
took part in the
repression of the
Hungarian revolt in
1956.Scale 1:72

The ISU 122 anti-tank
vehicle was built over
the chassis of the JS 2
Stalin heavy tank, and
used a powerful 122 mm
cannon which allowed it
to face Tiger and Panther
German tanks.Many
hundreds units were
built, and in its
numerous versions it
eventually became the
standard vehicle to
accompany motorized
infantry divisions of the
Soviet army.Scale 1:72

The Wehrmacht gave
special attention to the
units’ management and
their cooperation. For
the different levels of
Army Corps special
communications vehicles
were produced based on
half-track Armored
Personnel Carrier
Sd.Kfz.251 that had good
cross-country ability,
antibullet armor and one
or two machine guns for
self-defense.

Development of the Panzer
III began in the
mid-1930s with the aim to
make it the backbone of
the armoured battalions
of the Wehrmacht,
alongside a smaller
number of heavier tanks
(Panzer IV). Initially
armed with a 37mm cannon,
the Panzer III moved
rapidly to a 50mm cannon
and, in the upgraded
versions (Ausf M and L),
to the 75/24 gun with 64
rounds already used on
the Panzer IV. Production
ceased in August
1943.Scale 1:72

In 1933 the Krupp works
of Germany received an
order from the Wermacht
for the production of a
light tank.Total armament
was only two machine guns
MG 13. First it was used
by the Legion Condor
during the spanish war;
later this tank was also
used in Poland, France,
Northern Africa and at
the eastern war
theatre.Scale 1:72

This version of Armoured
car Sd.Kfz.234 was
produced in 1944 to
provide a standard
reconnaissance vehicle
for the German army as an
anti tank weapon.A potent
7.5cm type PAK 40 cannon
was mounted on a modified
chassis which was able to
neutralise almost every
enemy tank of that time.
Although built in limited
numbers this armoured car
was deployed on the
western front as well as
against eastern European
Soviet forces. Scale 1:72
