Well originally the idea came about because a few of us had actual Jagdpanzers, those based on the Panzer IV chassis.


Due to interest from people who had Hetzers, I decided to open it out a little to those tank destroyers that were based on an existing chassis.


Whilst both the Jagdpanther & Jagdtiger qualify for this, they're also examples of a tank destroyer in it's purest form, once the concept had been proven. At the time of the JP 4 being suggested many were against it, most notably Heinz Guderian.


So it essentially comes down to my interpretation of what a Jagdpanzer is!

Hello Patrick
it peaked my interest when I read about this, and I thought I'm sure I have an hetzer somewhere.


Well I dug it out of my stash.And if ok with you can I join in with this?.

This isn't a bad kit Ralph, quite simple build with a couple of nice figures. The masks for the camo really did my head in, I just could not work out how to use them lol. I know that some say it isn't accurate but bugger that, it looks right enough.

As you know I've never been one for pure accuracy.


I just like to model.

I hate Patrick because he don't allow me to build a Panzerkmapf IV.

Anyway, inclusive I hate Patrick, I'm searching a kit.....


Patrick! Mate! I hate you....but I'm really wishing to join in, and build some Jagtpanzer with you and the other members

Hahaha Polux you're not the first & you probably won't be the last!


I'm sure that you'll find something to build - how about a Braille scale Jagdpanzer?
