This big scale 1/16 R/C Tank Series kit depicts the Jagdpanzer IV /70(V) Lang tank destroyer. The German AFV, which proved formidable following its introduction late in WWII, was a popular release in the 1/35 Military Miniature series of static models in 2014. The "Lang" (German for "long") in its name was added to distinguish it from its predecessor with a shorter L/48 7.5cm gun; the design featuring a wedge-shaped glacis plate and utilizing the Pz.Kpfw. IV chassis was largely shared by the L/48 and L/70 varieties. 930 Jadgpanzer IV /70(V) Langs were produced between August 1944 and March 1945, and fought bravely in last-gasp actions such as along the Ardennes front from December 1944.

Here is a Jagdpanzer IV I did some time ago. I'm fine with 1:18 scale and for me I'll do customs rather than
start on another scale. I'm glad others have a choise, there are some nice 1:16 offerings.

Very nice :D

But I hear you about getting into another scale... A while back, the 1:16 bug bit me and I've now got a little fleet of modern and WWII vehicles in 1:16 scale, a mixture of Heng Long RC and quality FOV display models along with all my armor in a variety of scales from 1:144 to 1:6

I love Tamiya 1/16 RC tanks but boy they are so expensive. With the current exchange rate between $US & $CAN, it would cost me $1000 CAN + tax + shipping ( ~$100 US) for a King Tiger to my place :shock: .So I settled with the cheaper Heng Long Tiger 1, Sherman, and KV-1 tank. Hoping to get the Heng Long King Tiger next.

This is a project I started awhile back to make a conversion kit of a Jagdpanzer IV for the Panzer IV hull. I am still working on it and will release some pics soon. I have so many irons in the fire atm that my wife tells me I am going in ten directions at once. I also have a 1/18 British Hurricane I am trying to mold out to reproduce for the plane lovers. I could use some front and rear landing gear wheels off of about any 1/18 WWII plane would come in handy. If you have any and want to sell let me know please.

Will keep you all updated as they come along.
