Eureka XXL A-3522 8,8 cm Pzgr.Patr.40/43 Kw.K.43 1/35 – Ammunition and Crate Set

Eureka XXL A-3522 8,8 cm Pzgr.Patr.40/43 Kw.K.43 1/35 is a high-quality set of intricately detailed anti-tank ammunition components for the German KwK 43 88 mm gun, used during World War II. The product is aimed at advanced modelers seeking to enhance their armored vehicle models such as Nashorn, Jagdpanther, Königstiger, Elefant, or Ferdinand, used by the Wehrmacht in 1943–1945.

The 1/35 scale set allows for a realistic recreation not only of individual shells but also of a complete logistical scene with ammunition loading or storage. The set includes:

• 2 precisely lathe-turned aluminum Pzgr. 40/43 projectiles – with particular attention given to replicating the realistic pointed shape and ballistic details characteristic of sub-caliber armor-piercing ammunition
• 3 brass, lathe-turned shell casings – detailed with care for proportions and features such as indentations, rims, and even marking placements
• Photo-etched and resin components enabling the construction of two detailed wooden transport crates for ammunition – each crate features historically accurate modeling of hinge details, fittings, and plank division according to historical documentation

The 8.8 cm Pzgr.Patr.40/43 shell was one of the most important assets of the German armored forces in the final years of the war. Vehicles such as the Jagdpanther, Elefant, Ferdinand, Nashorn, and the heavy Tiger II (Königstiger) tank used these shells to engage Allied tanks at long range during combat on both the Eastern and Western fronts. This set allows you to highlight the history of these vehicles in dioramas and highly detailed models of late World War II vehicles.

This product is intended for advanced and intermediate modelers (difficulty level: 3/5) who want to significantly increase the realism of their models with authentic metal accessories and photo-etched parts. The set is suitable for use in dioramas, as an accessory for plastic models, and for interior detailing.
