About the PaK 36:
Developed in 1936 by Rheinmetall, the PaK
36 (PaK is an abbreviation of Panzerabwehrkanone) was a German antitank gun that fired a 3.7cm-caliber shell. Its first combat
was in the Spanish Civil War, and it was widely used in the early years of WWII. However, by the time of the campaign in the
West in 1940 and in the East in 1941, the PaK 36 was hopelessly outclassed and pretty much incapable of defeating the heavier
armor of tanks like the French Char B, British Matilda or Russian T-34. The diminutive weapon’s increasing ineffectiveness
led to its nickname of “door knocker” by its German crews. Despite this, the 37mm L/45 gun remained the standard antitank
weapon for many units until 1942.
In the second release in Dragon’s new 1/6 series of model kits, the PaK 36 comes
in from some loving attention from the company’s expert designers and engineers! Hot on the heels of the first 1/6 Kettenkrad
kit comes this plastic rendition of this common German antitank gun. The large scale allows all the intricate detail of the
original weapon to be fully rendered. Every component is accurately produced to scale and construction is straightforward,
making this kit a pleasure to assemble. To provide more options, ammunition and ammo cases are also provided. Modelers now
have the makings of a fine diorama, with the Kettenkrad all ready to tow this 3.7cm PaK 36 into action!
