PAK 40 Set History:
The 7.5 cm Pak 40 (7,5 cm Panzerabwehrkanone 40 – lit. “7.5cm armour defence cannon 40”) was a German 75 millimetre anti-tank gun developed in 1939–1941 by Rheinmetall and used during the Second World War. With 23,303 examples produced, the Pak 40 formed the backbone of German anti-tank guns for the later part of World War II, mostly in towed form, but also on a number of tank destroyers such as the Marder series.
A modified version of the gun designed specifically for vehicle-mounting was the 7.5 cm KwK 40, which differed primarily in using more compact ammunition, thereby allowing more rounds to be carried inside the vehicles. The KwK 40 armed many of the German mid-war tank and destroyer designs, replacing the Pak 40 in the latter role.
Depending on the source, the Pak 40 may be referred to as the 7.5/L46, referring to the barrel’s length in calibres. There were two versions of the KwK 40, which would be referred to as the 7.5/L43 or 7.5/L48.

A good set. It’s a little trying to put together and keep together due to small pieces and the conjunction of the cannon, split trails , shield and chassis. Best as a display piece since young children playing with it will probably cause disassembly. Of course, it can be reassembled. A nice touch would have been a hitch so that it could be towed by the FAMO or other sets. Good for use in a diorama.

A little difficult with such small pieces to put together, but looks great attached to the DAK Opel Blitz

I was impressed with how much detail they got into this anti-tank. Not easy to replicate with building blocks, considering how “light” in construction these weapons were in real life. That being said I agree with the other reviewers that it does best being used as a display instead to toy. Unless you children are really good at keeping up with all the little pieces and enjoy rebuilding it over and over. Definitely still the best “block” built gun I have ever seen at this scale.
