The Panzerjäger Marder II Ausf. D (Sd.Kfz. 132) is a German tank destroyer based on the chassis of the Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. D/E light tank. In response to the need for increased anti-tank guns on the Eastern Front, Soviet 7.62 cm PaK 36(r) guns were mounted on a modified platform. The vehicle featured an open fighting compartment and the typical silhouette of a low-profile tank destroyer; it was used by the Wehrmacht from mid-1942 onward, including in the battles of Stalingrad, Kursk, and in Ukraine, serving until the end of the war.

The Star Decals 35-871 decal set allows for a faithful recreation of several historic camouflage and marking variants of the Marder IID from various units that fought in the USSR between 1942 and 1944. It provides excellently reproduced tactical numbers, unit markings, and distinctive insignias. Each sheet comes with a detailed instruction manual with placement diagrams based on authentic vehicles verified by photographic documentation.

Thanks to their precise manufacture, the decals conform very well to the surfaces of models and ensure an excellent final effect. The product is highly regarded among enthusiasts on the market, especially among diorama creators and collectors seeking impressive displays.
