Name that Panzer Unit

Post by tmanthegreat » Sat Oct 16, 2010 9:55 am

I've got a question regarding the correct unit identification of the unit markings for a German Panzer Division...

One paint scheme on the 21c 32x Panzer IVD and the 1:18 RC "short barrel" Panzer IV feature unit markings consisting of a yellow "X" within a black box on the side of the tank and a devil image usually on the side of the turret. The same markings also appear on the S1 FOV 1:32 Panzer IV F.

What Panzer division do these markings represent?

Thanks for the help :D
