The Type H-J is a Panzer IV that further improved its combat power through reinforced armor and the replacement of the Type G gun with a powerful, long-barreled 7.5 cm gun. This famous tank went down in history as a match for the M4 Sherman and the T-34. Many Allied soldiers mistook the majestic figure, clad in samurai-like skirts (additional armor), for a Tiger I.

In this book, we provide an overview of the individual kits, explaining the key points for construction, and explaining the painting and weathering methods.
Other explanatory articles include the "Definitive Edition" for clearly distinguishing the Panzer IV-2 (a development of the H-J type), a comparison of the detailed parts of the individual H-J kits, and the "Tank Crew Equipment" based on original photos. These will help you find the right figure for the Panzer IV.
