Airfix 1/35 Panzer 111 Ausf J A1378
Recreate one of World War II’s most iconic tanks with the Airfix AX01378 Panzer III Ausf. J model kit. Known for its pivotal role in early German Blitzkrieg tactics, the Panzer III was initially produced in limited numbers, with only around 180 units available during the invasion of Poland. Early German mechanised warfare heavily relied on smaller, lighter tanks like the Panzer I and II, along with captured vehicles adapted for service.
The Panzer III Ausf. J represented a significant evolution of this legendary tank. Featuring a redesigned hull with enhanced armour and a new gun mantlet to house the powerful 50mm KwK 38 L42 gun, it was a step forward in firepower and protection. However, these advancements were hampered by prolonged development, and by the time this variant was deployed on the Eastern Front, it struggled to counter the heavily armoured Soviet KV-1 and T-34 tanks. Additionally, the larger ammunition reduced internal storage capacity from 90 to 84 rounds, further limiting its combat effectiveness.
Despite its shortcomings, the Panzer III Ausf. J became the most heavily produced variant of this tank. By 1943, it was outclassed and phased out as a frontline tank, but its reliable chassis continued to serve as the foundation for the highly effective Sturmgeschütz III assault gun and tank destroyers, prolonging its contribution to German armoured warfare.
This detailed model kit is perfect for enthusiasts looking to delve into WWII history. Moulded in unpainted plastic, it offers a rewarding challenge for experienced modellers.
Kit Features:
• Scale: 1:35
• Number of Parts: 599
• Skill Level: 3 – Recommended for experienced modellers
• Dimensions: Length 160mm, Width 83mm, Height 75mm
• Unpainted Kit: Painting required for a professional finish
This kit requires assembly and painting. We recommend using high-quality plastic glue and paints to complete your model with precision.
