Historical Description

Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf.A was one of the first mass-produced German medium tanks, which played a key role at the beginning of World War II. The Ausf.A version was developed in the mid-1930s and was mainly used by the Wehrmacht during the Polish campaign (1939) and throughout the Western offensive (1940). Germany initially employed this vehicle as a support tank for units equipped with lighter Panzer IIIs. The tank was armed with a short-barrelled 75-mm KwK 37 gun and featured interwar-era standard armor.
