Tamiya Nashorn Heavy Duty Tank Destroyer (1/35) 35335

Tamiya Plastic Model Kit Nashorn Heavy Duty Tank Destroyer (1/35) 35335 The German Nashorn ('Rhinoceros') was a formidable tank destroyer developed during WWII to address the need for mobile anti-tank firepower capable of defeating heavily armoured Soviet tanks. Built on a modified Panzer III/IV chassis and armed with the powerful 88mm Pak 43/1 gun, the Nashorn could engage enemy armour at extreme ranges with deadly accuracy. Despite its thin armour and open-top design, its long-range capabilities made it a serious threat on the battlefield. Introduced in 1943, Nashorns were used on both the Eastern and Western Fronts and were particularly effective in defensive roles. Their high-velocity gun allowed German crews to knock out enemy tanks before they could return fire, and while production was limited to around 500 units, the Nashorn proved its worth as a precision tank killer. 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit Detailed 88mm gun and mount with elevation and traverse Realistic open fighting compartment with internal features Accurate depiction of suspension and drive components Includes crew figures and optional stowage parts Ideal for recreating late-war German anti-tank scenarios This model offers a rewarding build and adds authenticity to German WWII diorama displays, showcasing the balance between firepower and mobility.
