The monograph is based on rich photographic material, presenting both archival photos and modern renderings, as well as depictions of construction details of the Panzer IV Ausf. H and J tanks. These models represented the German state (Third Reich) and were produced between 1943 and 1945 – they were actively used on the fronts of Europe, Scandinavia, the East, and the Mediterranean basin during World War II. Importantly, in addition to the German army, these vehicles were also used by Axis allies, including Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, and Slovakia.

The publication guarantees tremendous substantive value – here you will find not only technical descriptions and analyses of all significant changes introduced in the H and J series, but also authentic field photographs and professional modeling illustrations rendered digitally. This allows modelers to faithfully replicate even the smallest details of the tank, such as the placement of handles or the specifics of the hull and turret.

Recommendation: We particularly recommend the Kagero 0022 book to advanced modelers (difficulty level: 3/5) who build plastic models in 1/35 and 1/72 scale, as well as to those who intend to create professional historical dioramas. It also serves excellently as an inspiration for collectors and historical reenactors. This publication is an indispensable aid for anyone who cares about detail accuracy and historical correctness, as well as a source of intriguing facts and solid historical knowledge about German medium tanks from World War II.
