The Panzerbeobachtungswagen IV was a specialised armoured artillery observation vehicle based on the chassis of Germany's workhorse Panzer IV tank. To avoid being singled out on the battlefield, it retained its turret and a dummy main gun to look like a standard tank, but its interior was completely reconfigured. It was packed with advanced radio equipment and observation optics, serving as the forward eyes for German artillery batteries.

This huge 1/16 scale kit from Trumpeter is the ultimate replica of the Panzer IV Ausf.J in its unique artillery observation configuration. With an incredible 2000+ parts, this is a true "super kit" that features a complete, museum-quality interior for every compartment, from the driver's station and radio room to the turret and engine bay. It includes a turned metal gun barrel, eight photo-etched frets, metal springs, and fully workable individual track links for an unparalleled level of detail.
