Description
Plastic military model kit: German 75 mm anti-tank gun 1:35 Tamiya 35047
The 7.5 cm Pak 40 (7.5 cm Panzerabwehrkanone 40) was a German 75-millimeter anti-tank gun from World War II.
The gun was developed between 1939 and 1941 and entered service in 1942. With 23,303 units produced, the Pak 40 formed the backbone of German anti-tank guns in the later part of World War II, primarily in towed form, but also in many self-propelled artillery vehicles, such as the Panzerjäger from the Marder series.
A modified version of the gun designed specifically for mounting on vehicles was the 7.5 cm KwK 40, which differed primarily in the use of more compact ammunition, allowing for the transport of a larger number of rounds inside vehicles. The KwK 40 was the armament of many German tanks and tank destroyers from the interwar period, such as the Panzer IV, replacing the Pak 40 in this latter role.
The Pak 40 can be referred to as 7.5/L46, referring to its caliber and barrel length in calibers. There were two versions of the KwK 40, referred to as 7.5/L43 or 7.5/L48.
