Tamiya 35290 1/35 German Panzer III Ausf.N Military Kit - Detail Edition  [35290]

A closer inspection of the Tamiya 35290 1/35 Panzer III Ausf.N

The Panzerkampfwagen III Ausf.N was developed to support frontline infantry and to operate alongside heavier armour such as the Tiger. It was rearmed with a short 75mm gun adapted from the Pz.kpfw.IV to maintain battlefield effectiveness. Production from June 1942 yielded about 700 units, many assigned to independent Panzer battalions.
