Academy 1/35 Sdkfz.173 Jagdpanther Ausf.G1: Model Brief

The Academy 13539 1/35 German Sdkfz.173 Jagdpanther Ausf.G1 reproduces the vehicle's heavy gun and sloped hull in scale form, giving modellers a solid platform for accurate painting and detailing. Parts are designed to reflect the original layout for a faithful build.

Design Roots and Scale Accuracy

The Jagdpanther entered service in 1944 with a powerful 88mm main armament and well-angled armour. This kit mirrors those engineering cues with carefully sculpted components that reflect the vehicle's fighting silhouette and mechanical layout.

Workshop Advice and Display Potential

Take time with small assemblies and consider aftermarket additions for extra realism; weathering and chipping techniques will emphasise the model's character. Finished, the Jagdpanther Ausf.G1 stands out in collections or tabletop displays focused on mid-war armoured vehicles.

Specifications

While possible for determined beginners, the Academy 13539 kit is better suited to modellers with some experience due to fine parts and alignment needs.
Use liquid polystyrene cement for strong bonds and cyanoacrylate for small fixes; clamps or tape help keep parts aligned while curing.
Aftermarket metal barrels or resin detail sets are available from third parties and can enhance realism if you want extra detail beyond the stock kit.
