May be the deadliest defense weapon introduced by the Germans in WWII, where a Panther tank turret was put into a concrete/wood/steel sub-structure as a gun emplacement. Although some used Panther turret as is or from damaged tanks, later emplacements used special made Panther turrets with enhanced roof armour for protections from air raids.

This kit is features a concrete sub structure designed similar to those used in the West Wall. A line of vegetation was grown in front of the emplacement for added concealment.

The kit contains two parts: a painted gun emplacement and a elastic vinyl tube. PANTHER TURRET NOT INCLUDED.

Create Your Own Diorama or Fight Your Wargame Battles
with this 1:144 WWII German Tank Turret Emplacement Kit. Highly detailed and realistic. Specially designed for creating dioramas or wargame battlefields.

The emplacement has a pivot hole of 5mm (approx. 0.2 in) in diameter, which fits a Dragon Cando Panther turret. If you have a tank turret with a pivot pin smaller than that, you can use the elastic vinyl tube to thicken it to around 4.5mm. Basically you can fix most tank turrets from different manufactures such as Takara or even "N" scale turrets.

The emplacement is made with resin, fully painted and weathered and ready for battle. Each model is individually hand painted.
100% Made in Hong Kong.

Compatible with 1:144 Dragon and Takara WTM series of vehicles, also suitable for N scale military tanks.

Panther Turret and backgrounds not included.
