Historical Information

The Panzer IV was the Wehrmacht's main tank, used on all fronts of World War II, from the invasion of the USSR in 1941, through the North African campaign, to the battles in Italy, France, and Germany. The F1 version was introduced in 1941 and featured the short-barreled KwK 37 L/24 gun, ideal for supporting infantry. The F2, debuting in 1942, was already equipped with the long-barreled KwK 40 L/43 gun, which significantly increased the tank's anti-armor capabilities.
