Warlord Games Bolt Action 1:56 Scale WWII German SD.FFZ 139 Marder III - 402012024

Marrying the obsolete but reliable chassis of the Czech-built Pz 38(t) tank and the captured Soviet 76.2mm PaK 36(r) L/51 anti-tank gun
the Marder (Marten) provided the Wehrmacht with a potent self-propelled gun.
These captured Soviet weapons were rechambered to accept German 75mm PaK 40 ammunition and avoid supply issues.
As the war progressed, the main guns were replaced with the PaK 40 anti-tank guns.

This box set contains:

A 1/56th scale hard plastic Marder III tank destroyer

Bolt Action stat cards

Full-colour waterslide decal sheet

Vehicle damage markers

An instruction leaflet

Deployed on both the Western and Eastern fronts
the Marder III also saw action in North Africa where it was one of the few German options
to counter the heavily armoured British Matilda infantry tanks.

In all, 1,581 Marder III tank destroyers were produced and would continue to be employed to the war’s end in 1945.
