The
Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 164 NASHORN is a
plastic model kit in the
Dragon WW2 Military Plastic Models range. Another great kit release in our 'Premium Edition' line. Details and parts have received the Premium Edition treatment with upgraded parts and new items. To start, this kit has newly tooled 40cm Magic Tracks, a bonus aluminum gun barrel, and a very comprehensive range of photo-etched parts. Slide Mold technology is utilized on several parts
for example, the exhaust/muffler and muzzle brake. Dragon has again raised the standard on 1/35 scale kits with this new release.
Combining the tried and true chassis of the Pz.Kpfw. IV, and the powerful and deadly 88mm PaK43/1 L/71 gun, the "Hornisse" was a potent tank killer. The Hornisse was first fielded on the Eastern front in the summer of 1943, though it was to subsequently serve in the Italian and Northwest European theatres as well. In the hands of a well-trained gun crew this weapon had a deadly sting!
