Jagdpanzer IV Part 1:
L/48 (Sd.Kfz. 162).
Nuts & Bolts Vol. 37
he next Nuts & Bolts title will be
Volume 37 on the early versions
of the Jadgpanzer IV, also called
“Guderian’s duck”. This was
first designed in 1942 on an order of the
Heereswaffenamt to VOMAG and first
introduced in 1944 was basically a new
successor to the Sturmgeschütz. There
was a considerable effort by the General
der Artillerie for the retention of the designation “Sturmgeschütz”. Guderian battled
and won his case for the issuing of the tanks to the Panzerjäger units of the Panzer-
Divisions. Despite the inexperienced Panzerjäger units the Jagdpanzer IV became a very
worthy adversary against the Allies Armoured opposition.
This volume includes the early versions of Panzerjäger IV chassis No. V2 to the
leichte Panzerjäger IV with the 7.5 cm Pak 39 L/48. As we formulated the production of
this volume it became apparent that the historical information we obtained could only
be done justice if we produced two volumes on one of the most important German tank
of the Second World War. Together with Volume 38, which is devoted to the VOMAG
and ALKETT versions with the 7.5 cm Pak 42 L/70 and on the Einheitsfahrgestell, all
versions of this formidable vehicle will be included to the standard of information that
our readers have become used to.
This book will be 180 pages A4, glue-bound, and contains approx. 368 photos, of
these 152 contemporary photos from manuals, combat and war fronts in b/w, most
of them previously unpublished; 193 colour photos of restored vehicles and their
components in public and private collections, 23 colour photos of the models from Tony
Greenland, English / German captions, 48 pages English / German text, 15 pages of scale
drawings of all versions and details in 1:35 scale from John Rue, 16 camouflage schemes
from Laurent Lecocq, tactical signs and five tables of organization of units (Kriegstärke-
Nachweisungen KStN) having these vehicles in their arsenal.
First published 18 November, 2016.

BRONCO 1:35 R-3P RHEINTOCHTER
In 1942, the Allied air strikes against the German and
industrial targets were increasingly fierce, which made
the Germans stepped up their research and development
of anti-aircraft rockets and missiles. In September 18th of
the same year, the RLM and the Rhine metals company
officially signed a new type of anti-aircraft missile research
and development contracts. The main person in charge by
Dr. Crein who developed the "Rhinebote" ground to ground
tactical rocket as the project. The new missile is called the
‘Rheintochter’, and it has also become another attractive
and unique work in the history of German missiles.
Bronco will release a 1:35 scale model of this fascinating
weapon, including its modified 88 mm gun mount and
optional parts to mount the
assembly onto a vehicle.
We’ll have a detailed review
upon release.

Dragon is offering a new 1:35 scale kit featuring the Sturmgeschutz
Ausf. C/D. The Sturmgeschutz III (StuG.III) has the distinction of being
Germany’s most widely produced AFV of WWII, with 10,619 eventually
manufactured. Based on the chassis of the Panzer III, it was cheaper and
faster to build since it did not have a rotating turret. Only 50 of the Ausf.
C were built in 1941. The StuG.III Ausf. D was identical to its predecessor
except for installation of an intercom system. A total of 150 Ausf. Ds were
built from May-September 1941.
Hot on the heels of the popular StuG.III Ausf. E comes this kit. This
1:35 scale rendition boasts many new plastic parts. These include a new
fighting compartment and roof, new fenders, final-drive hatches and
glacis, side pannier for the radio set and angled side sponsons. There is
even a brand new light guard for vehicles specific to the StuG.Abt.177 unit.
Like the StuG.III Ausf.E (#6688), this new kit also contains a complete
gun with its mount and fighting-compartment interior details.
StuG. fans will find
it a treat to assemble
thanks to the kit’s
superior level of
detail and engineering
excellence.
We will have a full
review upon release.
