Historical Information and Use

The Pak36(r) is a German adaptation of the Soviet field gun model 1936 (F-22) with a 76.2mm caliber, captured in large quantities during actions on the Eastern Front. Recognizing the Soviet gun’s penetration capabilities, the Germans modernized and adapted it to their own standards – hence the designation Pak36(r), where the letter "r" stands for Russian origin. The weapon was widely used by Wehrmacht units from the second half of 1941 until the end of the war, especially during 1942-1945, mainly on the Eastern and Italian fronts. The gun functioned excellently as an anti-tank weapon, effectively countering Soviet T-34 and KV-1 tanks at a time when German designs were already insufficient.
