The Jagdpanzer IV, was a German tank destroyer based on the Panzer IV chassis and built in
three main variants.

It was developed as a replacement for the Sturmgeschutz III.

Officially only the L/48-armed vehicle was named Jagdpanzer IV and the L/70-armed
vehicle was named Panzer IV/70.

The Jagdpanzer IV served in the anti-tank sections of Panzer and SS Panzer Divisions.

These vehicles saw service in Normandy, the Battle of the Bulge and on the Eastern Front.

They were very successful tank destroyers but performed poorly when used out
of role as substitutes for tanks or assault guns.

It was also a needless vehicle, because the Sturmgeschutz III and IV were still more them
adequate for their role.and in some reports preformed even better then the Jagdpanzer IV.

Despite all the downsides of the vehicle there were still 2000 produced at the end of the war.

This Jagdpanzer IV has no historical information.

Today on the vehicle you can still see some original Zimmerit left around the suspension and at the back of the vehicle...
