TAMIYA TAM32570 PANZER II A/B/C (FRENCH) (1/48)
The Panzer II was one of the most important early German tanks of World War II, forming the backbone of the Panzer divisions during the invasions of Poland and France. Lightly armed with a 20mm autocannon and a machine gun, the Panzer II was outmatched by heavier Allied armor but proved effective in reconnaissance and infantry support roles. This version represents tanks deployed during the 1940 French campaign, where they played a crucial role in Germany’s Blitzkrieg tactics.

About the Vehicle:
First entering service in the mid-1930s, the Panzer II was intended as a stopgap until more powerful tanks were ready. During the invasions of Poland and France, it formed the majority of Germany’s armored strength, helping to spearhead Blitzkrieg offensives. While soon replaced by the Panzer III and IV as the war progressed, the Panzer II remained in service throughout the conflict in reconnaissance and support roles.
About the Model:
This kit is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Builders will need glue and paint to complete the model. Tamiya’s precise molding and die-cast lower hull provide excellent realism and ease of assembly, making it a great addition to any WWII collection.
