To cope against the pressure, it was decided as an interim solution to use obsolete Czech built 38(t) tank chassis and arm them with captured Soviet 7.62cm Pak36(r) guns, creating a fearsome machine. From February 1942,the first 18 Marder III\"s were put into action in North Africa, and by November the same year 344 had been built, with another 19 built by November 1943. The Marder III could be seen wreaking havoc on every front during WWII.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe form of the open top of this Marder III has been accurately captured.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe number of parts required for the assembly for the gun turret and highly detailed hull have been minimized for ease of assembly.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAssembly type tracks with one-piece straight sections.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOne crew figure in a winter uniform is included.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFour kinds of markings including North Africa and the Eastern Front are included.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMetal chassis weights for increased sense of the tanks mass.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe are not responsible for any taxes, duty, VAT, customs or other fees on the receiver’s end.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCheck out our other items, and save on shipping!
