Trumpeter 1/16 Pz.Kpfw.III Ausf.N Plastic Model Kit

German Panzer III (N variant)

In 1935, Hitler ordered the development of a new 15-ton tank. Researchers converted a new armored vehicle into a tank by equipping it with two MG34 machine guns and 37mm or 50mm cannons. Guderian equipped newly formed armored divisions with a large number of these tanks, laying the foundation for future German tanks and playing a crucial role in tank development history. The Panzer III was the main assault tank in the German Blitzkrieg campaign at the beginning of the war, accompanying the German conquest of France. However, with the emergence of more powerful Allied tanks such as the T-34, production of the Panzer III ceased.
