The E.T. Model E72-019 set is intended for modelers seeking the highest quality details for military vehicle kits. Designed specifically for StuG.III Ausf.G models produced by DRAGON in 1/72 scale, it includes precisely crafted photo-etched elements creating the characteristic side skirts (so-called Schurzen) for the late version of the StuG.III Ausf.G from World War II.

Historical Description and Application

Sturmgeschütz III Ausf.G is the most widely produced version of the German assault gun, extensively used by the Wehrmacht from 1942–1945 during World War II. These vehicles, including on the Eastern Front and in the defense of Normandy, used Schurzen—side armor plates designed to protect the tank against shaped-charge and anti-tank ammunition. They were mounted from mid-1943 onwards, which reflects the late variant of this characteristic feature.
