Introduced into Wehrmacht service in 1944, it quickly gained recognition for its low profile, compact silhouette, and many advantages in defensive combat as well as ambushes. These vehicles fought, among other places, on the Eastern and Western Fronts and during the defense of Berlin. The Hetzer was equipped with the 75 mm PaK 39 L\/48 cannon, making it ideal for combatting Allied tanks.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eDragon 6708 Model Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003ePrecisely rendered details of the early Hetzer version, including the running gear and armor embossings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eRealistic, multi-part 75 mm gun barrel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003ePhoto-etched parts for greater realism of details like exhaust shields and mountings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eOption for open or closed hatches – allows for diverse presentation of the model in a diorama.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eExceptionally carefully recreated armor surfaces and vehicle accessories.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      Glue and paints are not included in the kit – they are required to complete the model.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3\u003eRecommendation and Difficulty Level\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eDragon 6708\u003c\/strong\u003e is aimed at intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level: \u003cstrong\u003e4\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e).
