Elefant SdKfz 184
Manufacture Product Number : DML-6311 The Elefant SdKfz 184 was an anti-tank vehicle sometimes called the Ferdinand after its designer Mr. Ferdinand Porsche. Ninety Elefanten were manufactured in just a few months during mid 1943. It was first deployed during the Battle of Kursk and, though destroying 320 Russian tanks, performed very poorly in other respects - many units broke down, and they proved dangerously vulnerable to infantry, lacking a machine gun. They went on to serve in Italy in 1944, and the final units were involved in the Battle of Berlin.This new Elefant kit builds upon the success of the original 1/35 scale kit (DML6126), but adds many new features such as transparent plastic parts, aluminum gun barrel, photo-etched and slide-molded parts, and accurate new decals. This kit is a giant step forward, offering true value for the money and a mouthwatering range of multi-media parts. Main features include new cupola with photo-etched parts, periscopes made from clear parts, brand new Elefant magic tracks, new pistol port that can be assembled open or closed, all new aluminum gun barrel, slide-molded muzzle brake, new machine gun mount that allows MG to rotate, new OVM, toolbox formed from photo-etched parts with an accurate interior that can be assembled open or closed, metal tow cable plus slide-molded cable heads, bonus photo-etched side fenders with maximum accuracy, photo-etched cable stowage brackets, photo-etched tow hooks, exciting box art illustration, and new Cartograf decals. |
