The Panzer IV – Panzerkampfwagen IV – was one the foremost German
fighting vehicles of the Second World War, and this volume in the
TankCraft series is an ideal introduction to it. With detailed
captions, text and illustrations the book tells the story of the
technical development of the Panzer IV and the numerous variants
that went into production, and it describes how it evolved from an
infantry support vehicle to become the backbone of the Panzer
units. It was modified and upgunned to face the ever-increasing
enemy threat, and it proved to be so diverse and effective that it
earned a unique tactical role on the battlefield.
A large part of the book showcases available model kits and
aftermarket products, complemented by a gallery of beautifully
constructed and painted models in various scales. Technical details
as well as modifications introduced during production and in the
field are also examined in order to provide everything the modeller
needs to recreate an accurate representation of the only Panzer
that stayed in production throughout the war.
