The Vespid Models VS720021 kit depicts the late version of the German tank destroyer Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer, faithfully recreated in the popular 1/72 scale. This set is aimed at modelers and military history enthusiasts looking to enrich their collection with an important vehicle from the World War II period.

The Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer is a light German tank destroyer based on the chassis of the Czechoslovakian LT vz. 38 (Panzer 38(t)) tank, widely used by the Wehrmacht in 1944-1945. Hetzers appeared on all fronts, effectively supporting infantry units. Their low profile, good protection, and 75-mm gun made them a formidable opponent against Allied armored vehicles. The late version of the Hetzer differs in several details, such as a simplified structure or new types of road wheels, all accurately represented in this model.
