Germany introduced this vehicle into service in 1943. Manufactured by Krupp, the self-propelled gun was created by combining the hull of the Panzer IV medium tank with the superstructure and armament from the StuG III. This variant was used on all fronts, including battles on the Eastern Front, Western Front, and during the defense of German territory against the Allies. It distinguished itself with excellent firing angles and a proven 75 mm gun, which allowed it to effectively engage both armored targets and fortifications.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of use: Germany (Wehrmacht)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePeriod of use: World War II (1943–1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: plastic, photo-etched parts, possible metal components in selected assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: Plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Dragon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Dragon 6520 model is a so-called Smart Kit, renowned for high-quality details and modern solutions that make assembly easier.
