Trumpeter 1:35 - Grille L/16 Morser Bär (Bear) - Plastic model kit #09535
The Sturmpanzer Bär (Bear) was a German anti-tank self-propelled gun developed in 1942. Although this project was not put into production, the Sturmpanzer Bär influenced the design of other self-propelled guns including the Sturmtiger assault gun.
The Sturmpanzer Bär was based on the modified chassis of the Tiger I and had 130mm frontal armour. It was to be armed with a 305mm KwK L/16 anti-tank cannon and powered by a 12-cylinder Maybach HL 230 P 30 engine (700 horsepower). According to the design, the vehicle would be operated by a 6 men crew - a commander, a gunner, two loaders, a radio operator and a driver.
Had the Sturmpanzer Bär been produced, its total weight would be 120 tons.

Throughout WWII German troops managed to capture a number of Soviet tanks including the T-34, renamed as Panzerkampfwagen T-34 747(r) in German service and modified according to the requirements of the Wehrmacht. Equipped with radio and a German commander's cupola, T-34 747(r) tanks were also marked with a Balkenkreuz or a swastika in order to differentiate them from Soviet T-34's.

Academy 1:35 - German Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer (Early production version) - Plastic model kit #13278
The Jagdpanzer 38 (Sd.Kfz. 138/2), later known as the Hetzer ("pursuer/hunter"), was a German light tank destroyer, based on a modified Czechoslovakian Panzer 38(t) chassis, inspired by the Romanian "Mareşal" tank destroyer.
The Jagdpanzer 38 was a common late-war German tank destroyer. It was produced in relatively large numbers and was for the most part mechanically reliable. The tank first entered service in July 1944. Armed with the 7.5cm PaK 39 L48 main gun with limited traverse and featured sloped armour on its very low profile. An MG34 was mounted to the vehicle roof. It was well liked by crews, fairly reliable and concealable. Drawbacks were that it was very cramped inside the tank, had limited ammo and very thin armour. It was first used in the field in July of 1944 and would go on to serve on both fronts. Approximately 2,800 were built. The name Hetzer was unofficial and used by German troops in the field, then adopted by post war publications.
Due to the large number produced, the Jagdpanzer 38 is probably the most abundant WWII German tank destroyer remaining today.
