Italeri 1/72 Panzerjg. Elefant

These vehicles, which mounted a casemate gun, were used extensively by the German Army throughout the Second World War, providing covering fire for infantry and also being used as tank-busters. Several hundred of this particular self-propelled gun – constructed on a Pz.Kpfw. IV tank chassis – were built in several versions that underwent constant armour and gun upgrades to keep pace with the development of enemy weapons.
