Tamiya 1/35 Military - Pz Kpfw III Ausf N - 35290The Tamiya 1 35 Panzer III Ausf. N (35290) reproduces one of the most interesting Panzer III variants the Ausf. N that replaced the 5cm anti tank gun with a short 7. 5cm L 24 howitzer to create a close infantry support version. Converted from earlier Ausf. J L M hulls, the Ausf. N was often assigned to Tiger and Panther units to provide close range infantry support, since the long barrel tanks were less suited to engaging soft targets and enemy troops

The Tamiya 1/35 Panzer III Ausf.N (35290) reproduces one of the most interesting Panzer III variants — the Ausf.N that replaced the 5cm anti-tank gun with a short 7.5cm L/24 howitzer to create a close infantry support version. Converted from earlier Ausf.J/L/M hulls, the Ausf.N was often assigned to Tiger and Panther units to provide close-range infantry support, since the long-barrel tanks were less suited to engaging soft targets and enemy troops at short range.

Tamiya's 1/35 kit captures the Ausf.N's distinctive short 7.5cm barrel and late-war Schürzen side skirts with characteristic accuracy.

Kit highlights:

• Accurate Panzer III Ausf.N with short 7.5cm L/24 close support gun
• Schürzen side skirts and late-war modifications faithfully reproduced
• Eastern Front and Italy marking options
• An unusual and interesting Panzer III variant
• Ideal companion to Tamiya's Tiger and Panther kits
