During the Soviet-Finland War during WWII, the Finnish Army were provided with Sturmeschutz III Ausf.G tanks from Germany which later became their main tank until the end of the war. Equipped to the low profile hull of the Ausf.G was a powerful, long-barreled 7.5cm anti-tank gun. Once they had arrived in Finland, their Schürzen armour was removed, tool boxes were placed on the rear deck, and modifications were made in order to install Russian DT machine guns. In the spring of 1944, the Ausf.G fought against Russian armoured forces and protected Finland from invasion. Afterwards, to improve defensive capabilities of the Ausf.G, concrete blocks and logs were attached to the tank's hull. Even after WWII, the Ausf.G continued to serve the Finnish army with distinction up until the 1960s
The unique shape of the tank destroyer has been realistically reproduced. Distinctive features of Finnish StuG's such as large concrete armor blocks and logs are also included. In addition, tools and spare tracks are included for greater realism. The DT machine gun has been excellently detailed . A Commander figure (torso) and four kinds of markings included.
