Historical background

The Panzer III and Panzer IV tanks, in versions adapted to the African theater, were the backbone of German armored forces during the campaign in North Africa (1941–1943). DAK units fought, among others, in Libya, Egypt, and Tunisia, taking part in battles such as El Alamein. They featured numerous modifications to adapt the vehicles to harsh desert conditions – hence, in this set you will find, among other things, distinctive tropical elements and details specific to the Afrika Korps versions.
