A 1/35 scale injection-moulded representation of the Pak 97/38 towed anti-tank gun supplied with crew figures, released as part of Italeri's military vehicle line for builders focused on display assemblies.
The Pak 97/38 was an interim German anti-tank adaptation of captured French 75 mm mle 1897 barrels mounted on modified carriage hardware from 1941 onward. The conversion used a muzzle brake and adjusted mounting to allow use of contemporary anti-armor rounds, providing a lighter, more mobile option for units facing shortages of dedicated anti-tank guns during World War II.
This plastic kit emphasizes external surface detail and period fittings, with parts organised for conventional assembly and separate components for carriage, barrel, shield and crew poses. Included figures cover typical crew actions such as aiming and ammunition handling so the gun and personnel can be displayed together. Careful paintwork and optional minor aftermarket detailing will improve realism at 1/35 scale.
A historically referenced 1/35 kit of the Pak 97/38 intended for display-focused modelling and compact dioramas; suited to builders who want a crewed towed gun subject.
