In 1944, the end of WWII, the German Army attempted to enhance fire energy for the German Tank Panzerkampfwagen, while the German Panzer IV/70(A) developed centered on this plan of action. To shorten its development cycle whenever you can, the hull was based upon the German Tank Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf. J, which was under manufacturing at that time, with the fixed fighting compartment with L/70 7.5cm long barrel weapon associated with IV/70(V) Lang. The Panzer IV/70(A) also showcased rigid cable mesh panels called Thoma Schürzen. Around 280 produced in total therefore saw solution both in Eastern and Western Fronts.
