Control Your Own Ausf.J!
The Pz.Kpfw.IV fought through the entirety of WWII, and was a reliable workhorse for German forces. This R/C model assembly kit depicts its Ausf.J variant, utilizing compact gearboxes in the front, central pre-assembled turret rotation and gun elevation unit, and the MC-07 control unit in the rear. Just like a tank commander, take control of front and rear motion, pivots, turns, turret rotation and gun elevation. Assembly tracks use links to ensure that performance does not drop in slower speed ranges, and the hull parts are from a 1/35 Military Miniature Series model, ensuring plenty of detail.
This assembly kit creates an R/C model of the German Tank Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf.J. Late WWII German forces had great expectations for the incoming Panther, which was due to replace the long-serving Pz.Kpfw.IV; however, due to a delayed production schedule, the venerable Pz.Kpfw.IV actually continued to see front line service. The Ausf.J - the final Pz.Kpfw.IV variant tank, which went into production in 1944, was developed to suit defensive actions, and its chassis simplified to streamline use in other related vehicles such as assault guns. From Normandy to Italy, the Ardennes and even in the German homeland, the Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.J fought on until the end of WWII, proving a reliable counter to the ascendant Allies.
