MiniArt 72115 StuH 42 Ausf. G MID PRODUCTION 1/72

MiniArt 72115 StuH 42 Ausf. G Mid Production 1/72 is a plastic model kit that faithfully reproduces the StuH 42 Ausführung G at a 1:72 scale. This German self-propelled howitzer was used by the Wehrmacht during World War II. The model is based on the mid-production version of this vehicle, deployed mainly from 1943 on the Eastern Front.

Vehicle history: The StuH 42 Ausf. G (Sturmhaubitze 42) was developed on the basis of the popular assault gun StuG III Ausf. G, but instead of the classic cannon, it was equipped with a 105 mm howitzer, enabling more effective fire support for infantry. It was especially valued during battles in the vast expanses of Eastern Europe and during German counterattacks, including at Kursk in 1943.
