8.8cm KwK36 L56 (early)
It is unusual to describe a weapon as iconic but surely the 'eighty-eight' achieved that status during the war. When used in conjunction with the protective strength of the Tiger tank, the combination can only be described as awesome. This replacement turned metal barrel portrays the earlier version of the gun, with a larger muzzle brake, This type was used throughout Tiger production until replaced on the final production run from April 1944.
The instructions show how to install the gun to make it suitable for both 1/72 and 1/76 scale models.
Price: £4.25
