1/35 GERMAN SELF-PROPELLED HEAVY ANTI-TANK GUN NASHORN
The Nashorn is accurately recreated, including the long main gun and
large fighting compartment. Moving gun features realistic

The kit includes 3 marking options, with the choice of depicting an Eastern Front vehicle, and even a 3-color camouflage option.
Shell racks can be depicted in an open or closed state, and the kit
includes parts recreating armor-piercing and high-explosive rounds, in
addition to empty casings.
The unique breech block featured on the Nashorn is recreated as moving parts.
4 figures in action pose are included, and depicted in winter gear.

1/35 GERMAN SELF-PROPELLED HEAVY ANTI-TANK GUN NASHORN
Length: 241
mm. Image shows painted and assembled kit.
8.8cm of Destructive Power
The self-propelled heavy anti-tank gun Nashorn packed a formidable punch
courtesy of a mammoth 71-caliber 8.8cm Pak43/1 gun which was one of the
largest on the battlefield in WWII. The vehicle was developed in all
possible haste after the German Army had the unexpected surprise of
meeting such overpowering opponents as the T34 and KV-1 upon its
invasion of the Soviet Union. The recently-developed III/IV vehicle was
used as a base for the Pak43/1 gun, which was capable of destroying
enemy tanks from great distance. Top road speed was 42km/h thanks to its
relatively light weight of 24 tons. While deployment started in July
1943 under the moniker of Hornisse, it was given the new Nashorn
designation from January of the next year, reportedly at the command of
Hitler. 439 units were produced up to March 1945, and they served on
both the Eastern and Western Fronts, providing heavy firepower for
German forces.
