{"product_id":"10310","title":"Marder III Ausf. M (Sd.Kfz. 138) ; German Wehrmacht  (21st Century Toys, 1\/32)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis specific Marder III Ausf. M, personalized with the nickname \"Hildegard\" on its side armor, operated with an unidentified unit of the German Wehrmacht during the later stages of the conflict. Identified by hull number 321, the vehicle was finished in a late-war three-color ambush-style camouflage, a pattern essential for remaining undetected while lying in wait for enemy armor. As a tank destroyer, its role wasn't to lead charges but to utilize cover and concealment, engaging Allied tanks from a distance before relocating, a tactic that became increasingly vital as the German military faced overwhelming numerical superiority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRegarding its specifications, this model is the Sd.Kfz. 138 Ausf. M, which stands as the final evolution of the Marder III line. It is built on the reliable Panzer 38(t) chassis but distinguishes itself from earlier versions by having a mid-mounted engine and a fighting compartment located at the rear. The main armament is the 7.5 cm PaK 40\/3 L\/46 gun, a powerful weapon capable of penetrating the armor of most Allied tanks it encountered, making it a dangerous adversary despite its own light armor protection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WW2 Bunker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44838863732838,"sku":"99413 (Item No. 99300)","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/4926\/4998\/files\/L7-eGw5j-Bu0ApwmmpcahIA89sjPIeeLvFQnDuR10co.jpg?v=1772923042","url":"https:\/\/ww2bunker.com\/products\/10310","provider":"WW2 Bunker","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
