About the actual vehicle
The Elefant was a German heavy tank destroyer of World War II that exhibited overwhelming power with the power of its long-barreled 71-caliber 8.8cm gun and heavy armor that reached up to 200mm. Dr. Porsche developed it for the Tiger tank, but it was not adopted in a competitive prototype with Henschel. A new fixed fighting compartment was added to the chassis and a PaK43/2 71-caliber 8.8cm tank gun was mounted on it. In particular, it was characterized by the adoption of a unique drive system with an engine-generator motor drive mechanism. 90 units were made between March and May 1943 using the chassis prepared during the competitive prototype. It was immediately deployed in the Battle of Kursk against the Soviet Union in July, where it demonstrated its capabilities. Although it suffered from obstacles caused by its unique system and a lack of mobility due to its weight, it continued to fight valiantly until the end of the war, even being deployed in the defense of Berlin.
About the Model
This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit of the German heavy tank destroyer Elefant from World War II. The distinctive style, with a large fixed fighting compartment at the rear of the hull and a long barrel of the 8.8cm gun protruding from it, is modeled with a sense of weight and a finished length of 232mm. The fixed fighting compartment on the upper part of the hull and the lower part are each made of one piece to accurately reproduce their shapes. The uniquely shaped suspension unit is modeled with a detailed parts configuration to recreate its mechanism. The tracks use an easy-to-assemble belt type. Along with the reproduction of each individual road wheel and track wheel, the undercarriage is realistically depicted. This kit is a must-have for anyone interested in this vehicle with its large hull, fighting compartment and long gun barrel.
