The Panzer III Ausf.N was a close-support variant of Germany's workhorse medium tank, re-armed with the short-barrelled 7.5cm KwK 37 L/24 gun taken from early Panzer IVs to provide infantry with high-explosive fire support, while retaining the Ausf.N's thicker frontal armour. This release depicts a vehicle serving with the Deutsches Afrikakorps (DAK), Rommel's desert army that fought the British and Commonwealth forces across Libya and Egypt in 1941-43.
Dragon's 1/72 kit reproduces the Ausf.N's distinctive stubby gun, turret stowage bin and hull details in sharply moulded styrene, and is equipped with Dragon's Neo Track individual workable track links, giving realistic sag and tread detail appropriate to desert campaign wear.
A decal sheet for DAK unit markings and tropical camouflage guidance is included along with clear instructions.
Perfect for modellers building a North African desert war collection, pairing naturally with other Dragon Afrikakorps armour in the same scale.
